People begin steps to recall suspended Zamfara lawmaker

The masses lamented that electing him into the position was a grievous mistake on their part, and they were ready to undo all their errors.

In a statement on Saturday, the Kaura Namoda/Birnin Magaji Federal Constituency Coalition for Sustainable Democracy, a civil society organisation (CSO), explained that the move to recall the lawmaker is in accordance with the Nigerian constitution, specifically section 69 of the 1999 Constitution as amended.

The public statement, signed by the group’s chairman, Bello Mahmud, detailed the lawmaker’s misdeeds.

Jaji was suspended on May 17 for ‘anti-party’ activities during the 2023 elections by the state party.

The determined group expressed confidence in providing more than one-half of the registered voters who elected him to sign a no-confidence petition and have it submitted to the Independent Electoral Commission.

Mahmud said the lawmaker has never visited the local government areas he represents despite the fact that the settlements have been the most attacked by bandits,

He also pointed out that Jaji has never provided relief material to the victims of attacks in the said LGAs.

Mahmud concluded that this in stark contrast to the electoral promises he made during the electioneering period.

He added:

Meanwhile, TimesNow.com.ng reported that the APC chairman in Zamafara state, Tukur Danfulani, was impeached by the ward executive in the Galadima area of Gusau LGA of the state.

Garba Bello, the deputy chairman of the party in the state, led 16 of the 27 members of the ward who signed the letter of dismissal.

The executives alleged that Galadima was not providing good leadership for the party in the state and that he was biased in dealing with the party.
