Ahead of the 2019 general
elections, Govenor Nasir El-Rufa’i of Kaduna State on Friday warned the All
Progressives Congress (APC) stakeholders and party loyalists not to support
candidates that are not credible.
El-Rufa’i spoke during a meeting
with APC stakeholders in Soba Local Government Area at the council’s chambers,
Maigana, headquarters of the local government.
The governor assured that he had
no intention to support any candidate, hence the need for people to scrutinise
and select the best out among aspirants vying for different positions in the
party.
“As a people, you know who is
good and who is more credible among the aspirants; therefore, it is an
opportunity for you to select the best out of them.
“We are not going to interfer
during the primaries, because we have no candidate and whatever you elect is
going to be our choice”, NAN quoted him as saying.
The governor called on eligible
voters to ensure that they collect their Permanent Voter Cards (PVC) to be able
to exercise their franchise.
He also advised those who had not
registered to do so as the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) had
extended the registration period to August 31.
“I want to emphasise here that we
should make sure that we collect our PVCs and also encourage our women to do same
in order to vote credible candidates of your choice.
“Your PVC is your weapon; without
it, you have no vote. Therefore, we must endeavour to register and collect it
for use in the forthcoming elections.”
