The All Progressives Congress (APC), Zamfara state chapter has expressed concern over the lackadaisical manner the state government under Governor Dauda Lawal Dare has been handling security issues in the state.
The state publicity secretary of the party Yusuf Idris in a statement made available to Blueprint Wednesday described the wanton killing of innocent citizens as too rampant as the terrorists now encroach into the state capital, Gusau.
“Just this Monday morning, the bandits had the effrontery to move through farms to attack a police station in Bungudu, killing a policeman just as they simultaneously attacked Kwatar village, killing scores as reported by many media outlets,” he said.
The party slammed Gov Dauda for not appointing an SSA on security who would coordinate security matters whereas he resorted to appointing an SA on Finance and other matters.
The party also called on the governor, to as a matter of urgency, appoint security aides that will assist him rather than visiting security formations without a work plan on how to address the situation in the state.
“If the Dauda Dare administration could use soldiers through the support of the politically inclined retired and serving generals to intimidate other political parties, especially the APC in the state at the 2023 general elections, it will be expected that they should now use same browbeating against the bandits in fulfilment of their promises to the electorate,” the party stated.
