In response to Okpala “Zazzaga is an imposter and a pretend purveyor of lies. If anybody is talking on behalf of such a faceless and unlawful group, he’s participating in acts of criminality and he shouldn’t be given consideration.
“No due consideration must be given by anybody in a notable political organisation just like the APC with legitimate Nationwide Chairman duly recongnised by the Unbiased Nationwide Electoral Fee, INEC to the blackmail of Alhaji Zazzaga.
“Zazzaga ought to return to the trail of political rectitude if he’s a real get together man earlier than it’s too late.
“He ought to make the most of all of the organs of the get together by means of which points will be resolved quite than enjoying to the gallery and washing soiled linens within the public glare.
“He must know that political events have inner platforms for resolving points, irrespective of how vexatious they could seem.
“When one fails to discover these choices, however rushes to the courts as Zazzaga has achieved, it is a sign that such an individual is a dissident and an outlaw.
“You can’t be claiming to be a zonal chief and be casting aspersions and insinuating ignoble innuendoes in opposition to the management of your get together. That quantities to making an attempt to deliver your personal home to disrepute and break.
“Zazzaga has been attacking the Nationwide Chairman, Dr. Abdullahi Ganduje and even the President. Is that this the conduct of an excellent get together man? This indiscipline should cease” Chief Okpala emphasised.
“The Chairman of the APC North Central Governors Discussion board had spoken clearly, endorsing the management of Dr. Ganduje, just for Zazzaga to begin attacking the Governor, calling him names.
“If Zazzaga is a real and disciplined get together man he ought to know that the Governors are superior to no matter he claims to be within the get together hierarchy or the geo political zone.
“The Governors are an incredible drive to reckon with particularly inside their zones and the get together typically. They’ve clearly taken a stand to stay behind Dr. Ganduje and their place is much superior to the rantings of anyone within the zone.
“If the governors have mentioned Ganduje is correct and match to hold on as Nationwide Chairman of the get together, the objections by an inconsequentially unknown Zazzaga is simply noise and mere distractions.

“His continued feedback in a matter he had taken to court docket is subjudice and it reveals he lacks respect for the rule of legislation. You can not file a case in court docket in opposition to the Nationwide Chairman and go to the streets to be making all kinds of feedback on the identical difficulty underneath judicial willpower.
“Salihu Lukman, a former Nationwide Vice Chairman of the APC had threaded the trail of Zazzaga by being antagonistic of Dr. Ganduje and the Presidency.
“Adequate, the Northern leaders of the get together yesterday warned him and acknowledged that his views don’t characterize theirs. They maintained that he doesn’t converse for them.
“So if Zazzaga’s co – traveler has been warned to desist from such unruly acts, one wonders underneath which guise or platform he’s nonetheless spewing bile.
“Particularly as he lacks locus standi throughout the get together because the organisation he claims to talk for will not be acknowledged by any legislation and is clearly an unlawful entity.
“He’s the one who filed a case in court docket in opposition to the Nationwide Chairman, a case for which judgment has been mounted, why is he now making feedback which are pre-judicial and subversive to the willpower of the go well with.
“If Zazzaga has no respect for the rule of legislation why did he rush to the courts?
“His continued assaults on Dr. Ganduje reveals that he has been contracted by the opposition to undermine, trigger division and dangerous blood within the APC and that plot will fail,” Okpala concluded.
