A member of the House of Representative from Sokoto, Balarabe Salame, has warned stakeholders in the All Progressive Congress against imposing delegates during elections in the state.
Salame, representing Gwadabawa/Illela Federal Constituency of Sokoto State and Chairman House Committee on Poverty Alleviation, made the assertion during a meeting with APC stakeholders from the 23 local government areas of the state in support of his governorship aspiration for the 2023 general election.
His support group, Sokoto Vision 2023 led by Bello Dogon-Daji, were in a meeting ahead of the party’s Congresses to discuss on delegates. According to the lawmaker, imposing of APC leaders will not yield a good omen for the party in the state, instead it will create disunity among members and generate total failure.
