But when contacted on the itinerary of the rally, Bashir said he was not yet certain but would confirm and get back to our reporter, but as of the time of filing this report, he is yet to get back to our reporter.
Speaking under anonymity, a top associate of the party leaders said they had resolved to shun the rally due to non- inclusiveness and disregard shown to them by the campaign.
He alleged that the Vice Presidential candidate, Datti Baba-Ahmed, among other reasons have influenced wrong choices and involvement of non-active individuals in the steering affairs of the party in the state and at national level.
Recall that in Jigawa state, the governorship candidate of the LP and all its senatorial candidates recently have decamped to the All Progressive Congress (APC).
