The Governor, while stressing that the APC at all levels has lost value, relevance and acceptability in the minds of Nigerians, added that he was not suprised that even in Sokoto, they decided to boycott the coming local government elections to avoid the impending shame.
According to Tambuwal who was a governor under the APC platform between 2015 and late part of 2018 before returning back to the PDP, the APC has no clear-cut blueprint to galvanize the Nation’s potentials for development.

While showing satisfaction with the over 5000 members of the APC that defected to the PDP during the rally, Gov. Tambuwal said the party’s door is still widely opened to receive more members both at the state and national level.
In his words: “Every single Nigerian knows why the party (APC) is boyccoting the forth coming local government election in Sokoto State. The reason is very simple. The APC has lost relevance in the state and Nigeria and will continue to be unpopular until Nigerians votes them out of power soonest”.
