APC Must Act Fast on Zoning, Says Kwankwaso
Kano State Governor and the Senator-elect for Kano Central senatorial district, Alhaji Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, has advised the leadership of his party, the All Progressives Congress (APC) against undue delay in the distribution of key political offices.
However, in handing down his caution, Kwankwaso said any delay in finalising the zoning arrangement could amount to repeating the mistakes his former party, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), made on zoning of offices which brought about rebellion, in-fighting and acrimony in the out-going administration.
Speaking in an interview with a select group of journalists at the state governor’s lodge in Abuja yesterday, the governor said: …
“My advice to the party leadership is that they should quickly handle the issue of zoning. Some of us who witnessed what happened in 2011, believe sincerely that the party should not waste time unnecessarily, because the implication of any delay will mean that some people who are interested in the positions will go round the zones mobilising support for themselves and if the zoning comes late, they would have been very strong in their campaign that they can disobey the party, just like it was in the Tambuwal’s case in 2011,” he said.
Recalling what happened with the PDP zoning of National Assembly offices in 2011, Kwankwaso said Tambuwal took the opportunity of the delay in the decision on zoning to go around the country to mobilise for strong support for his quest.
The governor attributed the crisis that later led to the downfall of the PDP to the acrimonious relationship generated by the bitter power tussle between members in the National Assembly and the party leadership.
“At the end of the day, the party was humiliated because many of us who backed him did not want to change our position and with the support of the members from the opposition parties, Tambuwal won the Speakership position against the wish of the PDP.
“Things were never the same for the PDP because I believed that Tambuwal then had better association with members of the opposition party than those from his party. I would not want APC to repeat that mistake again and So I would like the party to quickly get done with the issue of zoning, “ he said.
