Supporters of the All Progressive Congress (APC) in Zamfara State have issued a stern warning to Hon. Aminu Sani Jaji, the member of House of Representatives representing Kaura/Birnin Magaji federal constituency of the State, accusing him of misleading the public and betraying the party’s values.
The group, therefore, called on Jaji to cease associating himself with the APC, claiming his actions were a deliberate attempt to undermine the party and its leadership.
In a statement released on Sunday by the chairman of APC supporters’ group, Muhammad Kabir Birnin Magaji, he berated Jaji for what he described as “anti-party activities” that led to his suspension from the APC.
“We have repeatedly warned him to stop linking himself with the party, as his actions and utterances do not reflect the values of the APC,” Kabir said.
“His continuous attempts to associate with us are deceptive and unacceptable.”
The supporters dismissed Jaji’s criticisms of the Minister of State for Defence, Bello Matawalle, as baseless, asserting that the lawmaker owed much of his political career to the influence of Matawalle and another former governor of the State, Senator Abdulaziz Yari.
Kabir highlighted a specific point of contention, which is Jaji’s apparent frustration over the distribution of seven trucks of rice donated by President Bola Tinubu during Ramadan to the State, which Matawalle oversaw.
“The minister launched the distribution, and genuine APC members witnessed it being shared peacefully across the state,” he said.
“Why is Jaji so pained about this? He is not the only lawmaker in the party from Zamfara—there are Senators and other representatives ahead of him.”
The chairman went further, noting that Matawalle has personally funded the distribution of over 50 trucks of rice,
distributed the sum of one billion naira to the party’s stakeholders, too and 100 cows to APC supporters in Zamfara during this Sallah celebrations.
“Why is Jaji concerned about this if he is not working for the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP)?” Kabir questioned.
The APC supporters accused Jaji of aligning himself with the PDP governor in the State, Dauda Lawal, to destabilise the APC in Zamfara State.
Kabir said Jaji held meetings with PDP members during Ramadan, but there’s no evidence he distributed anything—not even to them.
Jaji’s conduct, the group argued, exposed him as a “two-faced and unprincipled figure” more interested in personal gain than party loyalty.
The group pointed to his ongoing antagonism towards Zamfara State APC Ccairman, Tukur Danfulani, and his alleged attempts to tarnish the reputations of Matawalle and Yari—two of the state’s most influential political heavyweights—as evidence of his disloyalty..
