AFTER USE OF ARMY IN LAST ELECTION, PDP JITTERY IN ZAMFARA RERUN.

Image
The supposed incoming Peoples Democratic Party in Zamfara is now confused and jittery over Saturday April 15, rerun elections slated by INEC for Zamfara Central and two House of Representatives a situation that was caused by the PDP which used the army to intimidate APC supporters and stakeholders at the last election. Funny enough, since members of the PDP were exposed for having used some corrupt army officers without the knowledge of the army high command, now that they cannot use the same method, they have resolved to blackmailing the police for trying to do the right thing of ensuring a peaceful process. The purported release which was unsigned, was said to have emanated from the office of the governor elect and alleged a friendship existing between the IGP and Matawalle which is unfounded, because if Matawalle had the IGP, there would have been stronger resistance when the PDP used soldiers against the APC. Matawalle is a peace loving gentleman who will stop at nothing for the sa...

It may interest the general public that, INEC as the apex electoral body should be fingered by the DSS as th...

The Zamfara state government notes with dismay the story being peddled around by some unscrupulous elements alleging that the government owes the state workers 6 (six) months salaries and the the government is now paying the workers on table payment, using the humongous amount of old naira notes stashed by the Gov of the state His Excellency Hon (Dr) Bello Mohammed Matawallen Maradun. The wicked and very malicious propaganda by some unscrupulous mischief makers paid to tarnish the hard earned reputation of the Governor is nothing but envy of the huge successes being recorded by the government of Zamfara state under the able leadership of His Excellency Hon Dr Bello Mohammed Matawllen Maradun in the last three and a half years of his administration and the support the Gov is enjoying from all the nooks and crannies of Zamfara State towards the forthcoming general elections.

The Presidential Candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party PDP Atiku Abubakar has Condemned the recent extention of the 31 January deadline on new currency swap to Feb 17th to enable people at the grassroots and the less privileged to swap their currency to avoid loss.

The former Vice president, in a statement personally signed, alerted that some forces opposed to the conduct of a free and fair election were ganging up against the CBN. “The CBN should be wary of the elite whose motive for crying out about more postponement of the deadline for the tenure of the old naira notes is sinister and far from being altruistic. I am totally in support of building a cashless economy and reducing the amount of cash in our economy.” Atiku stated. In his view, “The anti-democratic elements who are pretending to be democrats are the ones ganging ...
