Appeal verdict: We’ll retrieve our stolen mandate — Zamfara APC

Published by

All Progressives Congress( APC), Zamfara state chapter, has said Thursday’s judgement by the Court of Appeal which averred that the last governorship election in the state was inconclusive and ordered for re-run in three local governments has proved once again that judiciary is the last hope of the common man.

This was contained in a statement issued by the State Publicity of the party, Yusuf Idris Gusau and made available to the Nigerian Tribune on Thursday evening.

The statement noted that” we are confident that our stolen mandate will soon be returned to us thereby vindicating our cries that the opposition PDP had during the polls used some misguided trigger-happy security personnel to deny the teeming APC members and supporters from exercising their franchise.

“With today’s declaration by the Court of Appeal, we are optimistic that very soon, the people’s governor Bello Mohammed Matawalle will be back to his rightful position as the Executive Governor of Zamfara State.

According to the statement,” The ruling was a clear testimony of our strong belief in God’s choice to give power or take it as He wills.

“We are also appreciative of the judiciary for painstakingly carrying out a job well done.

“Most importantly, our people, the electorate as well as our friends and supporters within and outside the state who are sacrificing a lot of their comfort to pray for our success, deserve a big thank you as we assure all that we will not fail you.

“To our opponents, we say God’s time is always the best, and we promise to continue to champion the course of peace, harmony and development of Zamfara State to greatness.

“We wish to appeal to our members, especially the youth who have remained patient, calm and law-abiding amidst the intimidation, harassment, threats and so on to continue to display high morals and discipline.”
