… Accuse leadership of the party inability to unite members
All is not going well with the All progressive congress Apc in zamfara state, following the recent fallout between chieftain of the party and it’s leadership.
The federal lawmaker representing Kaura-named-Birnin Magaji Federal Constituency, Hon Sani Jaji and his supporters created another faction within the party.
Addressing a press conference in Gusau on Wednesday, the chairman of the Sani Jaji-led APC faction, Honourable Aminu Abubakar MC, said they decided to create their faction because the party leaders have failed to unite its members due to selfish interests.
He said, “Those calling themselves party leaders have failed to unite the members of the party due to their selfish interest.
“We did our best to draw their attention to the dangers of disunity within our great party, but unfortunately, they refused to listen to us.”
Abubakar expressed disgust over the recent stakeholders’ reconciliation meeting, which he said was initiated by the former governor of the state (now Defence Minister), Honourable Bello Mohammed Matawalle, but nobody from the Jaji camp was invited.
He stressed that the said meeting was not done in good faith because of the non invitation of Honourable Sani Jaji as one of the stakeholders of the party in the state.
Zamfara APC chieftain faults Rep’s suspension
‘’How can the state chapter of the APC be complete without Honourable Sani Jaji?” He queried
“If Honourable Sani Jaji is not a stakeholder of the APC in Zamfara State, who else can we call a stakeholder?
“This is a calculated attempt by some people who call themselves leaders of the state APC to finally kill the party.
“For this reason, we have decided to open a new APC Secretariat in the state and we appointed the Vice chairman of the party and the assistant secretary to take charge until after the election of the new executive members.”
Arewa PUNCH recalls that Senator Kabiru Garba Marafa had also raised similar allegations where he also created his own faction.
With these developments, the state chapter of the APC has now been factionalised into three factions led by the Minister of Defence, Honourable Bello Mohammed, Senator Kabiru Garba Marafa and Honourable Sani Jaji.
