BREAKING: Northern Leaders Adopts Atiku As Consensus Candidate for 2023 Presidential Election

According to Hon. Ishiaku Haruna, a leader of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Zamfara State, the PDP is gradually gaining support in the State as a result of the struggle for political supremacy between the APC and the PDP for control of the state’s political culture.

Haruna bemoaned that APC was not supposed to engage in any political conflict with any party at this crucial moment since, in his opinion, the indigenous people are reaping thorns in their apple orchards.

 

Speaking with Ejesgist.ng at the premises of the State Upper Shari’a court 11, Haruna said that the ruling party was indirectly campaigning for the opposition party in the State.

BREAKING: Northern Leaders Adopts Atiku As Consensus Candidate for 2023 Presidential Election

According to him, the State government is drawing public sympathy to the PDP as many people have already started sympathizing with the party and will give their votes to the PDP on sympathy basis in the 2023 general elections in the State.

He recalled the 2011 episode in the State when Senator Ahmed Sani Yarima of the defunct All Nigerian Peoples Party (ANPP) was detained for over six hours at the State police headquarters by former Governor Mahmuda Aliyu Shinkafi’s administration, which drew the attention of the general public and they pitched their tents in Yarima’s camp.

“The sympathy from the electorate brought former Governor Abdul Aziz Abubakar Yari to the Government House as the voters revolted against the then ruling PDP through the ballot box..

“We are now passing through the same process and the ruling APC has not learnt anything from that lesson of 2011,” he said.

He urged the PDP leaders in the State not to be afraid of intimidation, saying that such is very common in politics as APC is only a toothless bulldog that can bark but cannot bite.

Haruna explained that the ruling APC in the State has a lot of lapses but the number one opposition party PDP has not criticized it so that peace can reign in the State.

“If the PDP criticises the ruling APC, people will look at it from a different perspective as if we want to sabotage the government,” he stated.
