APC group blames Gov Lawal for PDP’s defeat in Zamfara bye-election

The All Progressives Congress, APC, Youth Congress has blamed Governor Dauda Lawal for the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, defeat in the recent Kaura-Namoda South State Constituency bye-election in Zamfara State.

The Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, declared Kamilu Sa’idu of the APC winner with 8,182 votes, defeating PDP’s Muhammad Lawal Kurya who polled 5,544 votes.

The election, conducted in Sakajiki and Kyambarawa polling units, was a rerun after the initial poll was declared inconclusive.

In a statement on Wednesday, the spokesperson of the APC Youth Congress, Comrade Gambo Danladi, dismissed the PDP’s claims of electoral malpractice and military interference, describing the outcome as a reflection of Governor Lawal’s poor performance.

He accused the governor of failing to fulfill his campaign promises on security, development and economic progress, which he said contributed to the PDP’s loss.

According to Danladi, the bye-election result showed voters’ dissatisfaction, adding that it was the first time a sitting governor in Zamfara would lose a bye-election under his watch.

The group congratulated APC’s Kamilu Sa’idu on his victory and urged the PDP to accept responsibility for the defeat.
