“The meeting equally resolved to massively support the gubernatorial candidate of the APC, Alhaji Ahmed, Aliyu Sokoto, his running mate, Alhaji Faruku, Malami Yabo and other candidates of the party, at all levels.

“This is to rescue Sokoto State from the rudderless leadership of the PDP. The meeting calls on our members to come out en masse and vote peacefully, as well as ensure that their votes are counted, by guiding against those that want to rig the elections,” it added.

The statement also called on the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC ), to ensure that, it conducts free and fair elections.

This is to ensure sustainable peace and harmony before and after the general elections, adding, “any attempt to rig the elections and sabotage the will of the electorate will be repelled.”
