Kaduna state gubernatorial candidate of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), Rt Hon. Isa Mohammed Ashiru has called on the people of Kaduna State to come out enmass to vote the party this coming Saturday.
This was contained in a statement signed by the Deputy Director, Media and Publicity of the Campaign Directorate Mr Reuben Buhari and issued to newsmen in Kaduna.
It appealed to the citizens of the state not to be demoralized by the outcome of the recent presidential and national assembly elections , adding that staying at home for the gubernatorial election would not be rewarding in any way.
“If our dream is to have a secure, prosperous Kaduna State, then we owe it to ourselves and our families to resolve to go and vote for the PDP”.
“Not voting would ensure that more of our people in Kaduna State get sacked with impunity, or forcefully retired without them getting their benefits.
“Not voting might ensure that labour leaders who decide to legally protect the interest of their members when they would be sacked again, would be hounded and declared wanted like criminals”.
” Not voting might ensure the continuation of school fees increment in Kaduna’s tertiary institutions without regard to the common man”.
“abstaining from voting would continue to see our traditional institutions bastardised without recourse to what the people genuinely desire”.
“Not voting means more demolitions of houses and shops that the common man is using for sustenance; forceful seizure of people’s land and the experiencing of insecure environment that Kaduna currently has become,” he narrated
The gubernatorial candidate thanked the people of Kaduna State for voting PDP for all the Senatorial seats of the state and ten out of the 16 House of Representative seats.
“With us all strategically closing ranks and putting the result of the past election behind us, we will emerge with enough votes to ensure that the APC never again brings any hardship to the residents of Kaduna State”.
The statement further concludes by cautioning the All Progressive Congress in the state to use appropriate means to woo voters and not inappropriate inducement of any kind that may compromised the election.
