In a statement, the APC accused Governor Lawal of displaying indifference to the suffering of Zamfara’s people, contrasting his actions with his campaign promise to end banditry within his first month in office.

The statement expressed dismay at Governor Lawal’s public appearance dancing in traditional Igbo attire, which was widely shared on social media shortly after multiple deadly attacks in Zamfara. The APC highlighted specific incidents in July 2024, including attacks in Kofar Jangebe, Yartasha, Tsafe, Maguru, Magami, and Dan-Isah villages, where numerous lives were lost and many abducted.

The APC’s publicity secretary condemned the governor’s perceived lack of action in addressing these security challenges, emphasizing that Governor Lawal’s priorities seemed misaligned given the state’s ongoing crisis.

The statement urged Governor Lawal to fulfill his electoral promises and prioritize the security and welfare of Zamfara’s residents, calling for a change in approach to address the escalating violence in the state.
