2023: I Remain APC Senatorial Candidate For Yobe North - Bachir Machina | Daily Report Nigeria
SHARE

The winner of the All Progressives Congress’ senatorial primary election for Yobe North district, Bachir Machina has declared himself the flag bearer of the party ahead of the 2023 election.

Machina particularly denied stepping down for Senate President, Ahmed Lawan, or any other person.

Daily Report Nigeria earlier reported that the APC had submitted Lawan as its candidate for the 2023 election for Yobe North senatorial district.

The affirmation of Lawan as flag bearer followed a move by the party, asking the Independent National Electoral Commission to substitute the Senate President for Machina.

Machina had been declared winner of a primary election which Lawan did not partake, as he was contesting the presidential primary election at the time.

However, speaking during a press conference on Friday, Bashir Machina vowed not accept the move by the APC.

Describing the move by the party as undemocratic, Machina promised to explore all options towards reclaiming his mandate.

He said, “I remain the candidate of the APC Yobe North senatorial zone as duly elected. I did not withdraw for anybody and I will not withdraw because as a matter of fact it is a mandate given to me by members of our great party, the delegates.

“So surreptitiously removing my name, I consider (it) as very undemocratic, illegal and of course inhuman.

“I will take measures by first appealing to my party that if this action was truly done, it should be corrected, possibly if it was erroneously done. And it was deliberately done, we are actually seeking redress from the National Working Committee of our party under the leadership of Senator Abdullahi Adamu. I remain the candidate.

“I remain the candidate and it remains so. I hope our leadership will take the necessary measures. We will work hard to exploit and explore all the necessary channels as provided by our guideline.

“In the event of the contrary, as Nigerian citizens and as law abiding citizens, the constitution of our country being the overall law above every aspect of our lives as Nigerians, I would have no choice but to resort to court (legal) action.”
