The Publicity Secretary of the All Progressives Congresses (APC) Zamfara state chapter, Malam Yusuf Idris has called on the national leadership of the party to know the game plan of some politicians in the state who he said are bent on destroying the party if given the chance.
In a statement, Idris said, “The attention of the Zamfara state chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has been drawn to a malicious and unwarranted provocative statement published by some media houses and having emanated from some disgruntled former members of the APC and so-called elders of the state under the conscripted chairmanship of Alhaji Ibrahim Nabature for which we want the general public to note as follows:
“That the group has no standing in Zamfara, thus it was never in existence except for the purpose of creating disunity in the APC by those who chose to tow the path of disharmony and making frantic efforts in their last lap to (in their wild thoughts) destroy the APC”.
“At the local level in Zamfara, these people have faught tooth and nail to deny the peace loving Governor Bello Mohammed Matawalle from defecting from his former political party, the PDP to the APC for their selfish fear that their bread-winner and former Governor Abdulaziz Yari will cease to be the APC leader as the position automatically shifted to the serving Governor of the party in the state”.
“Having failed in their home state, they attacked the APC Extra-ordinary Convention Committee Chairman and Governor of Yobe state, Hon. Mai Mala Buni by challenging his position as the convention committee chairman up to the Supreme Court where they also lost but at the same time, they were partnering with the PDP to see how they will bring these leaders and the party down”.
“Lastly, the same group of political touts now went out to fight the governors of Jigawa and Kebbi states in addition to that of Yobe by addressing them as the ones trying to bring down the party, forgetting that even when the APC was in crisis in Zamfara, these same gentlemen governors made serious efforts to resolve them”.
As for Mai Mala Buni, they are shameless to recognize that it is under his good and focussed leadership that three governors and with thousands of their followers left their former political parties to the APC which had never happened in the nation’s political history within such a short period of time.
Even at these, the self acclaimed concerned persons do not have any concern for the APC when they are seen everywhere working with the opposition PDP and sending bad signals to the APC.
They are at the moment, not APC members having deliberately refused to revalidate their membership including their mentor, ex governor Yari.
They don’t have any stake in the APC but they are looking for relevance so that they can have access to the party when they come with their destructive arsenals.
We wish to emphatically call on the APC national leadership to know the game plans of these treacherous persons whose loyality in the APC have since been self destroyed and are working towards going down with the party should they be given the chance.
