Stakeholders in the Zamfara State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) have asserted that they would only support and deliver the state in the 2023 elections if the presidential candidate of the party, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu commits to tackle insecurity in the state and by extension, the North-west region.
The stakeholders demanded serious commitment from the presidential candidate as a condition to deliver the state to him.
The resolution of the stakeholders was contained in a statement issued yesterday by the APC Zonal Publicity Secretary, North West, Malam Musa Mada.
The statement read: ‘As the fact-finding tour of the North West Zonal officials of All Progressives Congress reached Zamfara on Wednesday, the stakeholders of the party in the State assured the Zonal Chairman, Malam Salihu Lukman and his team that they have unflinching loyalty to the party in whatever course and they are united in all fronts to give the party the required result necessary to claim the state in totality.
