People’s Democratic Party, PDP, Gubernatorial Candidate in Zamfara State, Dauda Lawal, has accused the All Progressives Congress led administration of attempting to undermine the peaceful conduct of the ongoing result collations in the gold rich state.
Speaking through his Media Assistant, Lawal raised alarm that the plans are in the top gear by the state government to issue a fake security alert in some strongholds of the PDP in order to rig the election in favour of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Lawal stated: “The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is in an early lead in the results so far collated from polling units across the State.
“There was a massive turnout of voters, and the results coming out indicate that PDP is comfortably winning.
“Elections were held successfully in all local government areas, but we learned that the governor is mobiliSing thugs intending to disrupt the process.
“We have uncovered that they want to disrupt the collation process in Shinkafi, Zurmi, Birnin Magaji, Anka, and Kauran Namoda local government areas.
“We call on the security agencies in the country, INEC, and International Organisations to consider Zamfara as a flashpoint area and beam their searchlight on it to monitor, and supervise the collation of results.”
