"Reserve your weapons for 2023" - Kano APC Chairman tells supporters

The Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Kano, Alhaji Abdullahi Abbas, has directed all their party supporters in the state to reserve their weapons against 2023 elections to attack anyone that attempts to rig elections there and then.

He called on the supporters to decisively deal with any person or group of persons that will attempt to embark on any form of electoral rigging on election day come 2023.

He stated this while addressing a mammoth crowd at the swearing-in ceremony of the newly elected chairmen of the 44 local government councils in the state, held on Friday in Kano.

After brandishing the weapons amidst APC slogan in unison, the acting APC chair asked the thugs to drop the weapons, saying “we will tell you when to use your weapons.

“If you find any opposition rigging the election, don’t spare him. Finish him instantly and nothing will be done.

“This is my punishment. Punishment for anybody rigging election. Nothing would be done,” Abbas declared.

This is apparently the third time the interim APC chairman had called for war against the political opponents, as he recently, during the inauguration of the committee for the party’s registration/revalidation exercise said the party would deal decisively with oppositions come 2023.
