Kaduna APC Gov’ship Candidate Assures PDP Decampees Of Fairness

All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship candidate in Kaduna State, Senator Uba Sani, has promised members of the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) defecting to the ruling party of equal treatment.

San said the PDP membership was depleting in the state on a daily basis with the decamping of its supporters to the APC in the run up to the 2023 general elections.

Senator Sani further said the opposition party was now completely non-existent in Giwa local government area of the state.

He said this in Giwa, when he received 12,817 PDP defectors yesterday, which included a former commissioner, woman and youth leaders.

The APC gubernatorial candidate assured the decampees that they had equal status and rights like every member of the ruling party.

“In APC, there is no discrimination. Those that joined today are equal in status as those who joined when the party was formed. We are a one and united family,” he added.

Sani advised the people of Giwa to vote for APC candidates in all the 2023 elections.

“You should vote for Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu in the presidential election, vote for Muhammad Sani Abdullahi as senator representing Kaduna Central senatorial district and vote for Jibrin Zubairu as member representing Giwa/Birnin Gwari federal constituency. You should vote for me during the governorship election and elect Umar Auwal Bijimi and Adamu Mohammed Shika to represent Birnin Gwari West and East respectively at the state House of Assembly,” he said.

Sani promised to be fair to all, develop all parts of Kaduna state and consolidate on the achievements of the Mallam Nasir El Rufai administration.

“The APC candidates that will represent you at the state and National Assembly are very vocal and eloquent people, who will not be bench warmers at the legislative chambers.

He challenged the gubernatorial candidates of PDP and New Nigerian People’s Party (NNPP) to produce evidence of bills that they had sponsored while they were at the National Assembly.

Speaking at the occasion, the APC state chairman, Air Commodore Emmanuel Jekada (rtd), praised the decampees for realising that the ruling party was the winning party which had brought dividends of democracy to the people of Kaduna state.

In his remarks, Alhaji Lawal Samaila Yakawada advised the people of Giwa local government to embark on campaign devoid of political thuggery and abusive language.

Yakawada who is a former secretary to Kaduna State Government, also said APC would be victorious in the coming election.
