The former Speaker reaffirmed the stakeholders’ commitment to support President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and the Zamfara State Governor, Dauda Lawal, noting that members have resolved to rally behind both leaders to ensure success in forthcoming elections.
“Today, history has been made in Zamfara State,” he declared. “There has never been a political atmosphere like this, where individuals who have not sat together for 15 to 20 years are now meeting to pursue a common objective.”
On the future of the party, he expressed optimism that the APC in Zamfara would emerge stronger and more formidable.
He added that the collective experience and understanding among party leaders would help in identifying capable individuals who can effectively deliver on the party’s mandate.
The former Spear urged party members to sustain the spirit of cooperation, stressing that unity of purpose remains the foundation for lasting political success and development in Zamfara State.
The meeting, which drew prominent figures from across the state, is widely seen as a strategic move to consolidate unity, reposition the APC, and enhance its chances in future political contests.
