The former Secretary to the Katsina State Government, Dr. Mustapha Inuwa, has commenced camapign and mobilization for the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Katsina State for the 2023 general elections. Inuwa, collecting his membership card of the PDP in Danmusa, his country home, after his defection from the All Progressives Congress (APC) to the PDP, told residents in the state to vote for the PDP, noting that the party will take them out of the artificial hardship in the state. Inuwa told the people not to be intimidated by threats from anyone during the 2023 general elections.
Inuwa warned the Katsina State government and state officials to desist from denying civil servants their right to vote or associate with candidates of their choice in the 2023 elections.
The former SSG was of the view that the recent political events in Kaduna State and Jibia Local Government Area, Katsina State, mark the end of the APC in the country, where blind followers were seen looking for trouble which will surely contribute to their defeat in 2023.
Inuwa, while not discouraging residents of the state from accepting money offered them by politicians or any aspirant during the general elections, he urged them to vote for the best candidates that will build their future and that of their children as well as the general well-being of the citizens.
Inuwa had stated: “This gathering is important and historic in the history of Katsina State and Nigeria at large.
“I want to thank the good people of Katsina State, particularly, that of Danmusa Local Government Area for their continuous support and cooperation to me since before now.
“I pray that God will continue to assist us in the struggle and effort to better the lives of Katsina people and their yet unborn generation.
“I am soliciting you and Nigerians, in general, to register with the PDP and garner more support for the party to win the forthcoming 2023 general elections.
“Successful people don’t fight. You all saw what happened in Kaduna and Jibia which signify the end of the APC era. This was because they were just looking for trouble, hence they will surely be defeated.
“We are all after people’s progress. We don’t do things that will jeopardise the lives of our people.
“You all know what’s happening currently in Danmusa and Katsina including the country as a whole. So, we must stand firm and assume that we are all candidates.
“If any politician or any candidate offers you money to vote for him or his party, don’t reject the money, collect it but vote wisely and vote for the best candidates that will build your future and that of your children.
“Vote for the PDP to get out of the current hardship. Don’t be intimidated with any threat from anyone else. So, government and its top-ranking officials should not intimidate or threaten civil servants of their rights to vote or associate with any candidate he or she wishes to vote because the constitution allows for that.”
