Tinubu and Matawalle Facilitate Return of Zamfara Lawmakers

The Northern Elders of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Forum commended President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Minister of State for Defence, Bello Mohammed Matawalle, for their roles in the return of eight members of the Zamfara State House of Assembly to the APC. This development follows the lawmakers' departure from the party due to political disagreements last month.

Alhaji Yusuf Abubakar, the forum Chairman, stated that this return is a significant step towards reconciliation and strengthening the APC's political structure in Zamfara State. He praised Tinubu for his leadership in promoting reconciliation and Matawalle for his active participation in resolving the political crisis.

The lawmakers' return is expected to enhance party cohesion as the APC prepares for the 2027 general elections. The forum emphasized the need for sustained reconciliation efforts to address underlying grievances and maintain unity among stakeholders in the region.
