The All Progressives Congress (APC) has postponed its presidential campaign rally in Zamfara State from February 3 to February 10. The state
chairman of the party, Alhaji Lawal Liman, disclosed this in Gusau, yesterday. February 3 had earlier been scheduled for the presidential campaign rally in Katsina and Zamfara States.
The State APC chapter had constituted a 60-man committee headed by Gov Abdula’ziz Yari for the rally in the state. Liman urged the party supporters and public to bear all the inconveniences that may arise as a result of the postponement. Liman did not give any reason for the change in date. However, it may not be unconnected with the decision of INEC on elections in the state. INEC has stated that the APC would not field any candidate in Zamfara for the state and federal elections scheduled for Feb 16 and March 2.
According to him, the date for the commencement of Governorship, Senate, House of Representatives and State Assembly Campaigns has also been rescheduled. “We had arranged to start the campaign on Monday February 4, 2019, but now it has been rescheduled to Sunday, February 3, 2019,” he said. He appealed to APC members in the state to come out enmasse to welcome the president and participate in the APC campaign rally in the state.
