All Progressives Congress (APC) in Sokoto State has said it’s examining the judgement that sacked two of his lawmakers at the National Assembly.
A statement issued by APC State Chairman, Alhaji Sadiq Achida on Wednesday in Sokoto said the party would study the Court of Appeal verdicts on the cases and respond appropriately.
Achida said: “The APC is examining the judgements and will leave no stone unturned to ensure that we defend all the seats won by our party through votes freely cast by Sokoto people.”.
He, therefore, appealed to its supporters to remain calm over the loss of two National Assembly seats to the People’s Democratic Power, PDP.
” The judgements in respect of Sokoto North and South Federal Constituency, as well as those in respect of Sokoto South Senatorial District and Bodinga Dange/Shuni Tureta Federal Constituency, appeared to be clear miscarriage of justice.

“The APC is examining the judgements and will leave no stone unturned to ensure that we defend all the seats won by our party through votes freely cast by Sokoto people,” Achida said.
Recall that Senator Abubakar Tambuwal representing Sokoto South and member representing Dange Shuni/Bodinga/Tureta Aliyu Shehu lost their seats to PDP’s Ibrahim Danbaba and Balarabe Kakale respectively.
