APC, PDP in battle of wits ahead supplementary polls
All Progressives Congress and the Peoples Democratic Party are locked in a battle of wits as the clock ticks towards this weekend’s governorship supplementary elections in some states.
But the Kano Commissioner for Information, Youth and Culture, who doubles as the Chairman, Publicity Committee of the Kano APC Campaign Organization, Malam Muhammad Garba dismissed PDP’s position as wishful thinking. Addressing reporters in Makurdi, spokesman for the APC Elders Council, Chief Terlumun Akputu, asked INEC to cancel votes in in Guma, Buruku and Logo areas of the state where, according to him, card readers were not used on March 9.
“We have no fears whatsoever. Only that certain things are going wrong which is making the atmosphere a bit uncertain. We are hearing that the opposition is mobilising stalwarts from other states. “Kebbe local government is our traditional strong hold where supplementary polls will be conducted in 35 polling units.”
