By IBRAHIM KANOMA, Gusau
Nigerian President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Zamfara State Governor Dauda Lawal have been told to resign their positions.
This call to the two leaders in the country was made as a result of their alleged failures to tackle the insecurity ravaging the North West state and the nation in general.
The Chairman Zamfara State Chapter of Africa Democratic Party (ADC), Kabiru Garba Gusau, made the call during the 2025 Handshake Day with theme: “Building Relationship” highlighting the role of handshaking in establishing trust, respect and professionalism, held in Gusau.
He said President Tinubu and Governor Lawal have been making unfulfilled promises, to tackle the bandits, to the people of Zamfara State, adding that, recently, the bandits have been on rampage with several killings and kidnapping in several villages and towns in the state without solution.
According to him, 38 people were recently slaughtered in Banga, Kaura Namoda Local Government and nothing was done by either the federal or state government.
Gusau further said, “Governor Dauda Lawal has abandoned the people of Zamfara State by his frequent travels out of the state. Failure of the duo in combatting the insecurity in the state to ensure peaceful coexistence among the people, therefore, has necessitated the need for them to resign.”
Kabiru Gusau called on Governor Lawal to “as a matter of urgency settle the rift created by parallel Assembly in the state.
He expressed readiness of ADC to take over Zamfara State in 2027 general elections.
ADC, he said, has so far received over 75,000 decampees from different political parties in Zamfara State, said the state chairman.
