By: Ahmed Aminu, Dutse
The ruling All Progressive Congress (APC) in Jigawa state says it will take disciplinary action against recalcitrant members spreading rumors and promoting disunity in the party.
In a statement issued by the state Secretary of the party, Muhammad Dikuma, the APC advised members engaged in such unholy acts to desist henceforth.
“The All Progressives Congress (APC), Jigawa State Chapter, having reviewed the current trends of events and happenings in the state, wishes to with all sincerity and commitment to duty and righteousness state that some dissenting voices in respect of the Government of Jigawa state under Mallam Umar Namadi are voices that lack clear understanding of the dynamics of governance.
“The APC as a party of the people does not in any way (remotely or closely) buy the idea of creating disharmony and confusion in the government of Jigawa state under His Excellency Governor Malam Umar Namadi.
“The media outcries that rant the air these days are but deliberate attempts to tarnish the image of the government, so as to take away his good attention from the excellent services to the people of Jigawa state,” it stated.
The party warned that it would not tokerate such behaviour anymore.
It notec that while the governor and Minister of Defence, Badaru Abubakar were doing their best to promote the state, some saboteurs within the party have been trying to create disharmony, which is unacceptable.
“Thus, all voices should be geared towards creating a very good atmosphere of freedom, liberty and progress in Jigawa state so that the dividends of democracy are fully explored and exploited.
“The APC as a party will henceforth take appropriate measures, including legal actions, on any popularity-seeking unpatriotic charlatans.”
