Africa Press-Nigeria:
Senator Kabiru Garba Marafa Thursday faulted the claim by the Governor Mai Mala Buni-led caretaker committee of the All Progressives Congress (APC) that the crisis rocking the Zamfara State chapter of the party has been resolved.
The Care-taker committee had at the end of its meeting on Tuesday, claimed that the crisis in the Bauchi, Bayelsa, Cross River, Edo, Ekiti, Enugu, Zamfara, Ondo and Oyo State chapters of the party, have been resolved and put behind the party..
Marafa, a governorship aspirant of the party in the 2019 election who spoke in Abuja insisted that the committee had not done anything since its inception to resolve the crisis in the Zamfara State chapter of the party.
The former governorship aspirant said the two factions of the party in the state were still existing and operating parallel secretariat in Gusau, the state capital and across the 14 local government areas of the state.
He noted that “this ungodly claim by the committee would only worsen the crisis in the party in the state.”
He reiterated the determination of his camp to fight for its rights and the rights of average Zamfara APC members.
Marafa said: “With this statement, the committee has deflated the trust and confidence reposed in it by misleading the public with the claim that it has resolved the crisis in the states mentioned.
“The committee has lost its integrity and its members should therefore resign or be sacked.
“This is nothing but a wicked lie.
“I pray that the committee is not on a mission to destroy the party completely.
“They have not done anything and have not contacted anybody; either by phone or letter, formally or informally. They are behaving as if Zamfara State does not exist and therefore doesn’t matter.”
