2015: APC’s Popularity Not A Threat To PDP – Wali, Shekarau Boast

The Minister of Foreign Affairs, Alhaji Aminu Wali, has declared that the popularity of the All Progressives Congress was never a threat to the ruling People’s Democratic Party, PDP.

Wali faulted the outcome of the local government elections in Kano, which returned APC as the winner of the 44 local government areas of the state, saying: “Every sensible person knows that what happened was nothing but a sham and arranged election.”


He made this known when he came to collect his renewed PDP registration card at his Hotoron Kudu ward, Nassarawa local government area of the state during the weekend, alongside former Governor, Ibrahim Shekarau.

The Minister noted that the participation of hundreds of people willing to register with the PDP had clearly cast doubts about the popularity of the APC in Kano.

Aminu Wali, reminded that the performances of the PDP in terms of job creation, execution of important projects and the concern of the government of its people, despite the security challenges, has maintained hopes in the minds of Nigerians that ‘ only PDP will rescue them’.

Also speaking after registering at his Giginyu ward, Kano, Mallam Ibrahim Shekarau, alleged that APC has used thuggery and influence to snatch their victory in the last local government election.

Shekarau noted that the support shown by millions of Kano people who are trooping out to register with the PDP in the state has given them confidence that they will certainly win the 2015 general elections.
