Speaking at the ceremony, Hon. Tukur Umar Danfulani, represented by his deputy, Alhaji Hassan Marafa Damri, expressed delight at their decision to join the APC, which he described as a significant boost to the party.

Damri emphasized that all right-thinking Zamfara indigenes must be passionate about the state’s peace and stability and, as a result, must work together to move the state forward.

Yari was pleased with their defection, saying they made the right decision by abandoning their political ambitions and joining the ruling APC.

Given its previous dominance of power from the defunct APP, ANPP, and now APC, he assured them that the APC is a party for the people of Zamfara.

In their declaratory statements, the deputy governorship candidate and Zamfara Central senatorial candidate, who spoke on behalf of other defectors, said they resolved to abandon their respective ambitions to support the APC because of the peace and stability brought about by the reconciliation of former Governor Abdulaziz Yari and Governor Bello Muhammad Matawalle.

They promised to mobilize all of their supporters and vote for APC candidates from top to bottom during the election.
