The All Progressives Congress APC has condemned an attack on the Zamfara APC chieftain Sani Abdullahi Wamban Shinkafi by some political thugs in Gusau on Friday.
Wamban Shikafi was attacked when he went to attend the wedding fatiha of the children of Alh Siddi Dakitakwas at the Sheikh Abubakar Mahmud Gummi Jumuat Mosque.
“The party noticed with shock how the horrific incident happened as some youths were joined by some irate youth to display such bad manner”.
According to the Spokesperson of the party in Zamfara Mal. Yusuf Idris Gusau, “This is uncommon of our otherwise well behaved party youngsters who may have had some grievances against any member and forgot that the APC has well coordinated channels of addressing all forms of grievances which should have been taken by the APC youth”.
“As a responsible party, therefore, we want to reassure all our loyal members, big or small, especially the leaders that we shall always do whatever necessary to protect them”.
“Under our current reconciliation initiative, the party stresses against such deviance even against opposition political party members”.
The youth are therefore urged to henceforth refrain from such acts and to present their grudges against any member through the right channel” the statement added.
“The party will take all the necessary steps to ensure perpetrators of such high level of indiscipline are arrested and prosecuted according to the law”.
“APC will ensure justice is done to every member and to enjoy the privileges as provided by the nation’s constitution”.
