Zamfara State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) recognised by the National headquarters of the party has commended the State Governor, Bello Mohammed Matawalle over his proactiveness against the recent bandit attacks in Anka and Bukkuyum local government areas of the state.
The commendation was made on Wednesday by the state APC Chairman, Honourable Tukur Umar Danfulani at the state Secretariat where he received party supporters from Maradun and Bakura Local Governments who came on a solidarity visit to the party headquarters, in Gusau.
He noted that the immediate visit by Governor Matawalle to the affected communities to commiserate with the families of the victims was quite commendable and a clear commitment of his APC-led administration to end banditry activities in the state.
He further said a day before the incident at Anka and Bukkuyum, the governor also led an operation in the night at Tsafe Local Government where a large number of bandits were killed describing his action as unparallel and a total sacrifice to Zamfara citizens.
He pledged his unalloyed support of the party to the governor’s fight against banditry and urged him to continue in that direction.
Advising the governor to remain focused and not to be diverted by the unpatriotic opposition in the state who do not mean well for the people of the state, saying we are entirely behind the governor and the Almighty will surely make him succeed.
The APC Chairman also called on the two visiting local government leaders to continue to support all government policies and programmes of governor Bello Matawalle especially with special prayers in his fight against banditry and other criminalities in the state.
He also directed the APC members of the local governments to mobilise the electorates to go and register and get their PVC since INEC is still registering people.
In their different remarks, Honourable Yahaya Chado Gora, Honourable Faruku Musa Dosara, Honourable Umar Maazu Faru and Alh Yakubu Gado all from Maradun as well as Alhaji Hassan Marafa Damri, Honourable Ahmad Muhd Bakura and Alhaji Alin Babe who are from Bakura said people at the grassroots are appreciative of the governor’s effort in addressing insecurity facing the state and the Northwest region.
According to them, those challenging him are the enemies of the state engaged in blind opposition and never see good because of their envy and hatred of the state.
They added that the security situation is now a regional concern rather than for Zamfara alone, but some unpatriotic politicians are trying to personalise or politise which is very dangerous.
They further said that the efforts put in place by the APC government under the leadership of Governor Matawalle will soon bring an end to the insecurity noting that some parts of the state have started enjoying the gradual return of the peace in their areas following the recent military operation in the state.
