Zamfara State Government on Monday said it has made all necessary arrangements to conduct local council elections by August 2024 to enable LGAs in the state collect their allocations.

The Senior Special Assistant, SSA, on Communication and Mobilization, Mallam Farouk Ahmad Shettima Rijiya, disclosed this while addressing newsman at the Government House in Gusau, the state capital.

“Zamfara State Government supports the Supreme Court verdict on Local Government autonomy as it will attract more development,” he added.

According to him, the PDP-led government would ensure a perfect and credible local government election in the state and prior to that, the party will fill all the vacant positions in its leadership.

According to him, these include three delegates across 147 wards of the state and one national officer each, apart from some key positions at the state level that are on acting capacity.

He further said that the national leadership of the party had authorized the state chapter to fill all the vacant positions by selection instead of mini congress that is expected to be held.

“Now, we are waiting for the arrival of the Chief Executive of the State, Governor Dauda Lawal, to carry out the task before notifying the national leadership for permission on the local government election preparations,” he added.
