Hon. Abdulaziz Maituraka, a prominent figure in the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Katsina State, has accused opposition leaders of exploiting security concerns for political gain. Speaking to APC supporters, he argued that it is unfair to blame the current administration for the state’s security challenges, which began before their tenure. Maituraka emphasized that security is primarily a federal responsibility, with state governments playing a supportive role, and noted that the situation in Katsina has improved compared to previous years.
The APC chieftain also pointed out that some of the critics were once part of the government themselves and urged them to stop politicizing insecurity. He stressed that the state government is working with relevant stakeholders to address the problem and called on APC members to obtain their voter cards and actively promote the party’s policies ahead of upcoming elections. This appeal highlights the importance of civic engagement and party involvement in shaping the state’s future.
Security remains a pressing issue in Katsina, where banditry and other forms of insecurity have affected citizens and regional stability. By advocating a collaborative approach, Maituraka’s statement underscores the complexity of the problem and the need for collective effort to find solutions. As the political landscape evolves and elections approach, the debate over security and governance is likely to stay central. Both the APC and other parties will seek to demonstrate their commitment to addressing these challenges and improving the well‑being of Katsina’s residents. The ongoing discussions and initiatives aimed at enhancing security will be closely watched by locals and observers as the state strives for a more stable and prosperous future.
