Gusau: Kabiru Garba, Chairman of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) in Zamfara, has extended an invitation to Gov. Dauda Lawal to join the party.
Addressing a press conference in Gusau on Friday, Garba stated that no fewer than 100 political actors from various political parties in the state had already joined the ADC.
He said, “We want to extend a formal invitation to Gov. Dauda Lawal to join the party to bring more development to the state.
“Doors are widely open to receive all defectors irrespective of their positions. We want to assure everyone of our readiness to give both new and old members equal treatment for an effective democratic process.”
Garba attributed the resolution of some political figures in the state to join the party to the sterling leadership qualities demonstrated by ADC leaders through justice, fairness and equal opportunity to all members.
“We have received over 100 political actors from various political parties, and we are giving them orientation on the party doctrine to enable them to know how to go about their political activities within the party constitution.
“All intended defectors should come through their ward leadership before reaching local government, then go up to the state level, and then to the federal level.
“We believe in recognising grassroots politics because that’s the best way to reflect the mandate of the electorate,” he said.
