The ADC candidate also promised to give the people of Zamfara a greater voice in the management of state’s affairs and urged residents to support him, pledging to put their welfare at the forefront of his administration, if elected.
The governorship candidate of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) in Zamfara State, Bilyaminu Yusuf Shinkafi, has vowed to prioritise security if elected the governor of the state in 2027.
He said insecurity has been the major challenges of the state and that, if properly addressed, farmers would return to the farms and produce more food for the state and nation at large.
Shinkafi made the pledge while addressing a large crowd of supporters who gathered to welcome him into Gusau ahead of the inauguration of his campaign council and the flag-off of his campaign activities.
Shinkafi further said, “If the problem of insecurity is tackled from the grassroots, all other issues would easily be addressed.”
Addressing the gathering, Shinkafi expressed his condolences to families affected by persistent killings in the state, frowning at the loss of several lives, displacement and destruction of livelihoods caused by bandit attacks.
The ADC candidate also promised to give the people of Zamfara a greater voice in the management of state’s affairs and urged residents to support him, pledging to put their welfare at the forefront of his administration, if elected.
He further said adequate attention would be given to youth and women groups.
