The
Kaduna State governorship candidate of the All Progressive Congress,
APC, Nasir Ahmed El-Rufai, on Sunday said he will select his running
mate this week in compliance with the directive of the Independent
National Electoral Commission, INEC.
Mallam
El-Rufai who was addressing APC candidates in Kafanchan, Kaduna state,
said “the process of choosing running mate is ongoing and with direct
involvement of all members of our party and stakeholders. We are not
looking for a running mate like PDP spare tyre, we are looking for a
deputy that can take serious responsibility of governance and base on
our experience, we need a sound running mate. The issue of a running
mate is a serious and rigorous exercise towards rebuilding our state for
peace and cogent development.”
While
stating that deputy governors should be engine rooms of development,
Mallam El-Rufai added that “everything about governance must be
redefined and taken serious, and so, our party is taking this matter
serious and we are working hard.”
“We
are still working and all of you should contribute from ward level to
the state level. We are looking for a very significant and competent
person from Southern Kaduna and we are praying to Almighty God to show
us the right way. Please endeavour to participate in this process.”
The
chairman of APC in Kaduna, Bala Bantex, in his remarks said “We have
vowed that there will be no imposition in APC and you have seen it all.
We had a successful governorship primaries that was transparent and
without a single petition.
“With
this we are on our way to victory, no more rigging of election in
Southern Kaduna and no more sharing and buying of votes in Southern
Kaduna. It is a new trend and a new dawn and with God we are coasting to
victory.”
