The immediate-past governor of
Zamfara State, Alhaji Abdul’aziz Yari, said his party, the All Progressives
Congress (APC), remained a strong political party in the state in spite of its
loss at the Supreme Court.
NAN reports that Yari stated this
on Tuesday while addressing APC supporters who paid him Sallah homage in his residence
in Talata-Mafara town in the Talata-Mafara Local Government Area of the state.
According to him, despite the
Supreme Court verdict which ceded leadership of the state over to the Peoples
Democratic Party (PDP) “our party remains the strongest party in the state”.
“This visit indicates that our
members remain one family; I thank you for this visit, I am appealing to you
not to be discouraged.
“We accept the court judgement;
we will continue to be opposition party and our opposition will be for the
benefit of the state.
“We should not blame anybody on
what happened; it was ordained by Allah and since Allah designed, it no body
can change it,” he said.
He urged members of the party in
the state to love one another and continue to work together.
Earlier in his remarks, the state
Chairman of APC, Alhaji Lawal Liman, said the visit was to show solidarity to
the former governor as the only APC leader in the state.
Liman said that APC remained
strong and united in the state, with no faction, adding that those parading
themselves as factions of the party were not true members but only working to
sabotage the party.
