Jangebe abduction: Zamfara APC members offered bandits N56m to hold girls – APGA leader, Shinkafi

The leader of the All Progressive Grand Alliance, APGA, in Zamfara State, Dr. Sani Abdullah Shinkafi has attacked the All Progressive Congress, APC, leaders in the State of bribing bandits N56 million to refuse to release the abducted Jangebe school girls.

He claimed that their main goal is to dispose of the peace effort of Governor Bello Mohammed Matawalle in the state.

The APGA’s 2019 governorship candidate in Zamfara State said this while briefing the press.

“I, therefore, challenge politicians from both the ruling and opposition parties to subject their telephone numbers to security checks since I am confident that the story that will come out of that process would be shocking,” he said.

He argues that the security checks on the personal mobile phones of the selected politicians should be from the 25th of February to the time the girls were released.

Shinkafi speaking further, said some APC members in Zamafara State are desperately working to ensure that Matawalle fails in his commitment to change the state, stating that security agencies need to step up their game in handling the insecurity challenges affecting the country.

Advising that youths should not allow themselves to be used as tools for bringing down the nation by some selfish and desperate politicians, urging them to pay attention to nation-building.

Shinkafi further call on the government to come up with initiatives that would help in lifting the youth by creating job opportunities for them.
