APC wins majority seats in Kaduna Assembly, commends electorate 

Published by

Kaduna State Chapter of All Progressives Congress(APC) has commended the electorate for voting the party in the last supplementary election

In a statement signed by Malam Yahaya Baba Pate, the Kaduna State Secretary of the APC on Wednesday, the party pointed out that its candidates won in all the four state constituencies in the supplementary elections held last Saturday.

The statement thanked the people for voting for APC in Giwa West, Kudan, Kauru and Sanga state constituencies in spite of the intimidation and  monetary inducements to sway voters.

‘’The people of Kudan constituency showed an uncommon resolve in the last supplementary election by voting for APC, in a local government where the gubernatorial candidates of PDP and NNPP hail from, ‘’ he said.

‘’With APC’s victory at Giwa West, Kudan, Kauru and Sanga state constituencies, our party now has 22 House of Assembly members-elect, in a state  legislature that has 34 members,’’  the State Secretary added.

Malam Yahaya Baba Pate further added that with the numerical strength of APC, the party  is just one  legislator shy from  having two-thirds majority, adding  that  ‘’this  will herald a good working relationship between the Executive and the Legislative arms of government.’’

‘’The APC envisages that the incoming Senator Uba Sani administration in Kaduna state will enjoy the kind of cordial relationship that the Malam Nasir El Rufai government has been enjoying with the law makers in the last eight years,’’ he said.

According to him, this harmonious relationship  will fast track the government’s policies and programmes which  will deliver the dividends of democracy to the good people of Kaduna state that voted the APC  into office.
