2023: The War In Zamfara Has Been Won

Marafa Speaks On Dumping APC For PDP

The Coordinator of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Presidential Campaign Council in Zamfara State, Senator Kabiru Marafa has assured the party of total victory in the 2023 election.

According to Marafa, Zamfara is totally for the APC and will produce resounding results at both the federal and state levels.

The APC chieftain said the party’s presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu should just focus on other states as there is no opposition to contest against in Zamfara.

He made the submission during the launch of the Tinubu/Shettima campaign in Zamfara State.

“There is no opposition in Zamfara State. Can you fight a war without a commander? No. The opposition in Zamfara now has no commander. Therefore, the war in Zamfara has been won,” he said.

Let Him Return Home

At the state level, Marafa appealed to Governor Bello Matawalle to allow the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governorship candidate, Dauda Lawal to defect to the APC as there was no need to head for the polls.

The former lawmaker declared that there is no vacancy at the Zamfara State Government House, adding that Lawal is still a politician in training.

“As Muslims, our religion teaches us that we should love our brothers how we love ourselves. This is why I’m calling on the state Governor to give our brother a chance (PDP governorship candidate, Dauda Lawal) to return home.
We will give him two to three weeks to come and seek forgiveness so that we can forgive him. Let him return home so that we can work together,” he said.

He added that anyone that wants to take over in Zamfara would have to wait for Governor Matawalle to complete his second term.

“A brother of mine told me leadership position is like a seat in a barbing saloon. When a customer finishes his haircut, another will sit on the same seat to also have his haircut.”

“Presently, someone is sitting on the Zamfara State governorship seat. Bello Matawalle is the one Allah SWT has given it to. With what we saw today (the multitude of people that came out to welcome them) anybody thinking he wants to occupy the seat should have a second thought. Wait until he (Matawalle) finishes his second term in office, you can then vie for it. But presently, you (Dauda Lawal) have not learned enough, you need to come back for more training” he said.

On the Zamfara Central Senatorial Contest, Marafa challenged the PDP candidate tp show what he has done for the people ”let every one of us say what he has done for our people,” he said.
