Hassan Marafa, former emir of
Bakura in Zamfara state, has emerged deputy chairman of the state chapter of
the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
Marafa rose to the new position
during the party’s state congress held in Gusau, capital of Zamfara, on Monday.
He was appointed emir of Bakura
in 2010 by Aliyu Mamuda but was removed by Abdulaziz Yari, who replaced him
with Bello Sani, the current emir.
Marafa would now deputise Ibrahim
Mallaha, the chairman, who was re-elected for second term during the state congress
of the party, supervised by Babangida Aliyu, former Niger governor.
Hamisu Modomawa emerged as the
state secretary of the party while Ai Maradun, the party’s former woman leader,
was elected vice-chairman, Zamfara west.
Other leaders that emerged during
the congress include Sani Sada, vice-chairman north, Isa Maigemu, vice-chairman
central and Sule Anka, auditor.
Speaking at the end of the
congress, Aliyu expressed satisfaction with the conduct of the delegates and
charged members of the party to support the state executives in the discharge
of their duties.
Aliyu urged them to resolve
contentious issues amicably whenever they arise.
