Zamfara APC Cries Out Over Unauthorised Printing Of Party Agents Tags

The ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) has accused the opposition PDP in Zamfara State of illegal printing of party agents tags.

This is contained in a statement issued in Gusau on Saturday by the state APC Publicity Secretary, Yusuf Idris.

“The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) is the only authorised authority to produce and issue the agents tags to all registered political parties.

“The APC leadership in the state is calling on security operatives to fish out any saboteur or groups trying to cause confusion before, during and even after the upcoming governorship and state assembly elections in the state.

“This call has become necessary following alleged arrest of one suspect printing party agents cards for all political parties ahead of the March 18 elections,” he added.

He called upon ecurity agencies to investigate and expose anyone involved in the alleged scam, to ensure a peaceful, credible and acceptable election in the state.

Reacting to the allegations, the Secretary of PDP, Ahmad Shatiman-Rijiya dismissed the claim as mischievous and baseless, and urged people of the state to disregard it.

“The APC is making unnecessary allegations against PDP because it is not happy with the daily increasing popularity we are recording across the state,” he added.
