Katsina State Governor, Dikko Umaru Radda, has called on leaders and members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) to accommodate politicians returning to the party and avoid disputes over positions and responsibilities.
Radda made the call on Friday at the Government House in Katsina while receiving former Secretary to the Katsina State Government, Mustapha Muhammad Inuwa, and members of his political structure from the state’s 34 local government areas.
The governor said political differences should not prevent stakeholders from working together for peace and development in Katsina State.
“This gathering should teach us that good leadership and politics do not have to be about fighting. People can disagree politically and still come together in peace and work for the progress of the state,” Radda said.
He urged APC local government chairmen, members of the State Executive Council and other party stakeholders to create an environment where returning members could contribute without unnecessary tension.
Inuwa said the political structure he led comprised about 220 groups across the state and had maintained its grassroots connections through different political platforms. He said many members had decided to align with the Radda administration and return to the APC.
Former Katsina State Governor, Aminu Bello Masari, described Inuwa’s return as an opportunity for political stakeholders to rebuild relationships and work together in the interest of the state.
APC state chairman, Bishir Gambo Saulawa, also welcomed Inuwa and his supporters, saying their political experience and grassroots connections would contribute to the party’s structures across Katsina.
