A member of the House of Representatives, Sani Zorro (APC, Jigawa) has petitioned the National chairman of the APC, Comrade Adams Oshiomhole urging him to conduct direct primaries in his (Zorro) constituency.
In a letter dated September 17, 2018, Zorro said contrary to the directives by the party national headquarters, the APC chairman in Jigawa in cahoots with Governor Muhammadu Badaru, had refused to call a meeting for various stakeholders to adopt the type of the primaries they wanted for various offices.
He said in clear breach, the party chairman Alhaji Ado Sani Kiri and Gov. Abubakar had taken turns in various radio stations claiming that indirect, as opposed to direct primaries had been adopted.
