[00:24:11] president for us in the APC
[00:24:15] we are absolutely ready and the
[00:24:19] candidate of our great party come 2027 and
[00:24:23] the uh federal house of representative election
[00:24:26] victory is definitely setting for us and for our
[00:24:30] president. right, so Mr. Eneaf, in
[00:24:33] reaction to the judgement the federal high court, what
[00:24:37] steps is your are your camp taking now to enforce the
[00:24:40] judgement?
[00:24:43] well, uh, we have enormous
[00:24:46] confidence in professor.
[00:24:50] Quiton, the chairman the Independent National Electoral Commission.
[00:24:54] Uh, you agree with me that this is the first among several
[00:24:58] cases across the federation as result the direct
[00:25:02] uh primary election that was held in our party,
[00:25:06] sometimes around May, and the
[00:25:09] reality the day, which we
[00:25:13] cannot afford uh to
[00:25:16] negate, is that the... the
[00:25:20] APC as a law abiding party we
[00:25:23] obey the extent judgement, the judgement by
[00:25:27] competent court of jurisdiction, and we are also using this
[00:25:30] medium to inform that
[00:25:34] the judgment is explicit, and the entire
[00:25:37] world is being a such light on what becomes of our
[00:25:41] democracy by our actions and
[00:25:44] actions. can you hear
[00:25:48] me? yes, yes, yes, however, We don't have uh so much time
[00:25:52] left, so let me just ask this final question and then use that to get
[00:25:56] your uh closing remarks, especially when you look at the bigger
[00:25:59] picture being uh the issue of voter. turnout and party
[00:26:03] unity uh in the APC - you with
[00:26:07] this uh tostle with this
[00:26:09] dispute? well quickly, when
[00:26:13] the judgment uh was in public
[00:26:17] domain even though the
[00:26:20] entire uh CTC has not
[00:26:24] been released certified true copy, but when the judgment came into public
[00:26:28] domain, the joy that enngulved the entire...

[00:26:43] requisite for our party com 2027. again, let me
[00:26:47] raise this issue, and that issue is the fact that if there is
[00:26:51] anybody who has been very magnanimous in victory, it is
[00:26:54] barrister, he was prevailing on his
[00:26:58] supporters to be magnanimous in victory, despite that
[00:27:02] we saw. a large turnout gathering across
[00:27:05] from to

[00:27:12] largely that is popular amongst our people and he is the

[00:28:02] in news this hour, Mr. Bright,
[00:28:04] affair. Moving on now in the
[00:28:08] news, the Zanvara state government has denied
[00:28:11] allegations leveled against it by the C chapter the interparty
[00:28:15] advisory council of Nigeria, that government
[00:28:19] filled to adequately address security and economic challenges,
[00:28:22] awarding contracts to non-indigens as well as uneven
[00:28:26] distribution of projects and delays in the distribution
[00:28:30] of fertilizers to farmers. The government says these
[00:28:34] allegations do not reflect the realities on the ground,
[00:28:37] Theophilus Darufar reports. Security,
[00:28:41] economic, growth and agriculture are key components the six points Agenda of
[00:28:45] Governor Lawal's administration in Zamfor state. The government
[00:28:49] says it remains committed to restoring lasting peace across the state and improving
[00:28:53] the livelihoods of residents, but the interparty advisory
[00:28:57] council of Nigeria Ipark in Zanfara is questioning the government's
[00:29:00] performance particularly in the area. of security and
[00:29:03] agriculture. the council also raises concerns over the
[00:29:07] distribution of fertilizer to farmers and the implementation of development
[00:29:10] projects across the state. responding to the allegations, the senior
[00:29:14] special assistance to governor and broadcast media, mustafa
[00:29:18] Jafarra dismisses the claims insisting the
[00:29:21] administration continues to give pariority to security, agriculture and
[00:29:25] economic development. doubt it much if there is any
[00:29:29] governor that attaches high premium on the security issue. moreden
[00:29:33] governor someone that did not make any compromise for
[00:29:37] dialogue with the bands, some someone that empowers the locals to
[00:29:40] defend themselves, cannot be accused of not showing concern about the
[00:29:44] issue of insecurity, probably ipark you know try
[00:29:48] to you know overstept itself by maybe saying
[00:29:52] government delayd in the supply the fertilizer uh government that is
[00:29:56] supplying fertilizer free to during dry season farming during what season
[00:30:00] farming in the last three to four years now uh cannot be
[00:30:03] accused of delaying the supply of fertilizers. i park also alleges that
[00:30:07] government projects are concentrated in gusou the steel capital while
[00:30:11] questioning the award of some contracts to non indigens. in the real
[00:30:15] sense if you are talking of sophistication nature of a international
[00:30:18] airport. i don't think that there is any indigenous contractor that can handle the
[00:30:22] issue of international airport. you see this is what i'm saying,
[00:30:26] either ipark are just want to make a cheap
[00:30:29] blackmail on governor Dr. you have to give
[00:30:32] it to a standard contractor, an international contractor with international
[00:30:36] refuge for that matter for him to do the issue of
[00:30:40] international airport, but when it comes to the local contractors, i
[00:30:43] that it if there is any contractor in the state who is competent
[00:30:47] that has not been given contract in zanfar state.
[00:30:51] the zanforestate government says development project to be extended across
[00:30:55] the 14 local government areas based on the specific needs and priorities of
[00:30:59] each community.
