Sen. Aliyu Magatakada Wamakko (APC Sokoto) says the All Progressives Congress (APC) will continue to drive on popular people’s confidence to achieve maximum success during elections in Sokoto State.
Wamakko, a former Governor of Sokoto State and APC leader stated this in his address to APC supporters on Thursday in Sokoto.
He appealed to the electorate to be peaceful, remain law-abiding citizens and troop to the polling units to cast their votes within stipulated times during the coming governorship and state assembly elections.
He said that peace was the prerequisite of any meaningful development, stressing, “without peace and harmony, development and socio-economic prosperity will continue to elude us.”
Wamakko cautioned people against all forms of violence, saying “its consequences would not do anybody any good, as it is destructive and retrogressive.”
He thanked people for the support given to APC during the last Presidential and National Assembly elections and urged them to sustain the tempo on Saturday.
Wamakko described his political struggles as destiny, stressing that God gives to and takes leadership from whosoever He wishes and at His appointed time.
He further expressed confidence in President-elect Bola Ahmad Tinubu as capable of transforming the country.
