A staunch All Progressives Congress (APC) member in Sokoto State and Chairman of Sokoto South Local Government Area, Alhaji Ya’u Danda, has said those claiming to be salvaging Nigeria under the guise of opposition political parties are fraudulent and too unpatriotic.
Danda further stated that politicians, especially those opposing the APC, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, and the Sokoto State Governor. Ahmad Aliyu are ingrates.
According to him, both leaders are committed to the development of Nigeria, and Sokoto State in particular.
“All those masquerading as the messiahs of the country are people who were tested with various leadership positions at various levels in the country, and they woefully failed Nigerians.
“I must therefore sternly warn Nigerians to steer clear of them and come on board the real political party truly committed to taking Sokoto State and Nigeria to greater heights.”
According to the Chairman, the people of Sokoto State in particular and Nigerians in general must stay put in the APC with a view to tangibly consolidating the myriad of gains so far achieved in the state and across Nigeria.
Danda further maintained that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu had done a lot in the country and in Sokoto State, just as Gov. Ahmad Aliyu Sokoto has done.
He cited the examples of the ongoing multibillion-naira Sokoto-Badagry Superhighway, the Sokoto-Gusau-Funtua-Zaria Highway, as well as several other road projects ongoing across the country.
The Sokoto South LGA Chairman further said that Nigerian governors no longer secure loans to pay salaries and execute infrastructural projects like was done by them hitherto.
“The governors are now getting adequate funds to execute a myriad of projects to better the lot of Nigerians.
“Such former obnoxious development is now history, as the governors no longer take loans to execute projects, pay salaries, and other entitlements of workers.
“A new national minimum wage has also been successfully implemented, and all categories of workers have benefited from the largesse.”
Danda further extolled Gov. Ahmad Aliyu Sokoto for even exceeding his people-centric 9-Point Smart Agenda, saying, “He has touched all aspects of development well beyond the agenda.
“This is glaringly evident in the massive infrastructural transformation that has been going on in Sokoto State from May 2023 to date.”
He also described the APC leader and former Governor of Sokoto State, Sen. Aliyu Magatakarda Wamakko, as a true father, mentor, and benefactor to the Governor and all true and loyal supporters.
According to Danda, Sen. Wamakko, who represents Sokoto North Senatorial District, has been providing the direly needed guidance and wise counsel to Gov. Ahmad Aliyu Sokoto, being his loyal and highly disciplined son as well as mentee.
“We are not therefore in any way surprised as to how the current administration has recorded colossal achievements in the past three years, sequel to the sustained wise counsel of Sen. Wamakko.”
The Sokoto South Local Government Area Chairman also extolled the invaluable vision and mission of Sen. Wamakko, adding, “His major preoccupation is to see to the even development of Sokoto State and Nigeria.
“Sen. Aliyu Magatakarda Wamakko is a senator without borders and has an undying love for the people of his constituency, Sokoto State, and Nigeria in general.”
Danda, therefore, among others, urged the people of the state and Nigerians to troop into the APC and vote for all its candidates in the forthcoming 2027 general polls.
He also solicited sustained fervent prayers for leaders at all levels as well as the restoration of peace, unity, and prosperity in Nigeria.
