As the All Progressives Congress APC in Sokoto set to conduct it’s governorship primary, some governorship aspirants of the party have called on the leadership of the party to adopt direct mode for the exercise in the state.
The aspirants threatened that anything done contrary to their request may spell doom for the party,
Addressing a press conference in Sokoto, Senator Abubakar Gada, in company of Abdullahi Balarabe Salame, said the state chapter of the party has been without recognized leadership.
According to them, the party chairman should recall that only few days to the primaries a pronouncement was made by the Sokoto federal high court without any clear directive.
He said in order to put the party in a strong position, six out of seven aspirants formally requested for direct primaries as contained in the electoral act 2022 as amended”
They further said, ” we however vowed to be on the side of law by deciding to keep away from the charade about to take place in the Sokoto State APC.
“We make bold to submit that whatever happens in the course of this so called exercise cannot stand the text of the law, thereby putting the state chapter at the highest risk of nullification of whatever may emulate therefrom irredeemable”
They however threatened that both of them are not part of this compromised process in the interest of the party.
