The Zamfara chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has said that the nationwide protests by some groups did not reach the north-western state because of Gov Dauda Lawal’s good governance.
Acting Chairman Mukhtar Lugga made this statement during a chat with reporters on Friday in Gusau while reviewing the protests that have turned violent and led to looting in some neighbouring states.
“Zamfara residents are happy with the state administration; they are happy that much is being achieved.
“Government has initiated many programmes and policies that have been beneficial. It has declared a state of emergency on education and health. It has also paid a backlog of gratuities.
“The administration has also constructed, or reconstructed, roads. It has renovated and equipped schools and hospitals and intervened in agricultural businesses, among others,” he said.
He agreed that there was hardship in the land, but expressed optimism that President Bola Tinubu’s efforts would address the socioeconomic challenges of the country.
“In addition to what the state government is doing, we will continue to pray for the president to succeed in fixing the country’s economy.
‘’Hardship is everywhere, but all tiers of government are taking necessary measures to tackle the situation,’’ he said.
Lugga urged the people to continue to be law-abiding and pray for leaders to succeed in overcoming challenges affecting the country.
