The Zamfara State chapter of the All Progressives Congress, APC, has described a member of the House of Representatives, Aminu Sani Jaji, and members of his faction as agents of destabilization, saying that the party in the state is intact.
The state APC Publicity Secretary, Mallam Yusuf Idris Gusau, said this in a statement which was made available to newsmen in Gusau.
The Zamfara APC leadership accused Jaji of fomenting crisis in the party.
Parts of the statement said, “Just this last Wednesday, some few individuals led by the Zonal vice chairman of Zamfara West, Hon. Isiyaka Ajiya Anka and four other officials out of the 36 executive members of the party in the state addressed the press claiming to have taken over as the leadership of the party without recourse to the party constitution.
“They took over a paint selling shop and embarrassingly referred to it as their state APC secretariat and were inaugurated by a floor member of the party Aliyu Abubakar MC, former Tsafe Local Chairman who never held nor is holding any position in the party at any level from ward up to the national.
“These flagrant abuse of the party can no longer be condoned, and the APC under the chairmanship of Hon. Tukur Umar Danfulani in the state and the leadership of the Hon. Minister of State for Defence, Dr. Bello Mohammed Matawalle, having done everything to ensure unity and fairness among members with the full backing of critical stakeholders like Senator Abdulaziz Yari Abubakar, Senator Ahmed Sani Yarima and Alhaji Mamuda Aliyu Shinkafi among others will not allow these agents of destruction to spoil the good image of the party.
“We are aware that the action and activities of this group of mischief makers is part of a grand plan to break the ranks of the APC and its good chances of continuity from the national level down to the states.
“The Presidency and the National Secretariat of our great party are aware of these people who had plotted and failed both in the 2019 and 2023 elections.
“As they plan to hatch another bad one ahead of the 2027 elections, they should be informed that we are fully ready for them and the party they intend to float, which can certainly not match the APC.
“We will break their every move as long as they try to impair, overindulge, or mollycoddle the APC.”
