A chieftain of All Progressive Congress in Zamfara Abubakar Baba Abu has called on Governor Bello Matawalle to sit up and confront the reality in the political developments of the state.
The politician who was reacting to the announcement of the formal defection of former Governor Yari to PDP said, Governor Matawalle shall be made to understand that, so many things are wrong in the Zamfara APC.
“Anybody who is deceiving the Governor that the defection of Yari and his teeming supporters is not a challenge to APC in Zamfara is a real enemy of the Governor and APC. As a former Governor who ruled Zamfara state for eight years and with his versatile political experiences, Yari shall be seen as a threat to the APC in Zamfara and our chances of winning 2023 election lies with the wisdom of the Governor to do the right thing”.
He further said “majority of those that are empowered or given opportunity by the Governor cannot even win their poling units this is an open fact. Here in Gusau I can assure you and I doubt if there is any Commissioner who can win his polling unit and this is a political threat”.
“ I knew what it takes to loss an election, in 2011 I was made to run with my legs because people were against the party and government of that time. I have done good to my people, but because of their dislike for the party and government of Mahmud Shinkafi we lost the election unceremoniously”.
He added that, those who can deliver to the APC are known but rightly or wrongly they are not carried along in moving the party forward, noting that, if the Governor is willing to get things right those who have the capacity are known, and they shall be supported speedily.
“Fighting Yari and his team in 2023 is like fighting spirits he has the capable hands who can deliver for him there is no doubt about that, but like I said it’s not too late they can be crushed politically if the Governor is willing to do the right thing”.
