Marafa who Spoke through Channels Television in a program Politics today also threatened to go to the Court to Challenge the action of the National Headquarters of the APC for conducting the Scheduled Ward Congress in all the 14 local governments of Zamfara State.

Curious of the likely to happen, this Medium deployed it’s crew of reporters to cover the conflicting ward congresses. However, our Crew could not ascertain any parallel Congress in any of the 14  local government areas of the state.

One of the supporters of Senator Kabiru Marafa said, they were tired of being used by the Senator to disrupt Zamfara politics. Another Supporter of the former Senator, Aliyu Mohammed Tsafe said, ” which trouble are they going to face?, is it the party  squabbles or the Inherited insecurity Governor Mutawalleh is trying to curtail.” Mohammed further said, ” following  Senator Marafa  actions and inactions  to agree on some simple in- house agreements  and decisions, Zamfara state is losing at the the national level in all ramifications, and becoming ungovernable.

Our reporters who went round  some local governments areas of the state reported that, the officials of the APC National Headquarters were at the local Governments to oversee the conduct of the exercise and have expressed their satisfaction on the level of cooperation and massive turnout of members for the exercise.
