The Katsina State All Progressives Congress (APC) gubernatorial candidate, Dr. Dikko Umar Radda, has pledged to tackle insecurity if elected governor during the forthcoming general elections.
He spoke during a rally in Funtua at the resumption of his campaign tour of the state after a short break.
Radda explained that part of his cardinal programmes will involve the training of youths from across the state who will work with security agencies to combat the menace of banditry and related criminal activities of terrorists.
Earlier, the APC candidate had covered Katsina North and Katsina Central Senatorial zones where he visited all the wards in the two areas.
At the campaign rally, a number of his supporters defected from the opposition People’s Democratic Party and joined the the APC.
Some of them include a former state PDP Treasurer, Alhaji Garba Tela Faskari, former candidate for Kankara, Faskari and Sabuwa Federal Constituency, Alhaji Abdulkadir Faskari, and Alhaji Hassan Damina Funtua, a prominent PDP member since 1999, among several others.
