The governorship candidate of the All Progressive Congress (APC) in Kano State, Nasiru Gawuna, has urged his supporters to turn out en masse to vote for the APC in the March 18 governorship and state assembly elections.
Mr Gawuna, the incumbent deputy governor of the state, is contesting the election against his main contender, Abba Kabir-Yusuf of the New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP).
In a statement on Sunday in Kano by his media aide, Hassan Musa Fagge, the candidate said it was only by so doing that the party would win all elective positions in the state.
“While we commend you for tenacity and courage, we are also urging you to troop out in large numbers on Saturday, March 18 and vote for the APC.
“By coming out next Saturday to vote according to the electoral guidelines, you would be demonstrating efforts of consolidating the success achieved by the APC across the country.
“Our supporters should eschew violence and conduct themselves in an orderly manner during and after the election,” he said.
According to Mr Gawuna, voting for the APC is vital for the state’s sustainable social and economic development.
