APC Registration Causes Shortage of Brooms in Kaduna
Kaduna South is running out of brooms as a result of the All Progressive Congress (APC) registration.
According
to DailyTrust, many shop owners and residents were requesting for
brooms from in Zangon Kataf, when a former Deputy Governor of the state,
Engr. James Bawa Magaji, moved to villages in Kaduna South shortly
after his registration in Fadan Kaje Gida, on February 12, 2014,
Wednesday.
“We’ve been searching for brooms in many of the shops here but all they tell us is that it’s finished.“Some of us have been putting calls across to our friends but they tell us there are no brooms”, Samaila Emmanuel, a resident, said.
Since
the APC registration started, Okada riders, market women and other
individuals who want to identify with the party have been rushing for
brooms. The coming home of Engr. Bawa Magaji to register as an APC
member made it a more scarce commodity, with many shops making brisk
business out of it.
A shop owner in Zonkwa, Peter Bahago, said he had never sold brooms as he did since the APC registration commenced.
“I am surprised, the broom market had never been as good, and we are grateful that we made good sells when Magaji came to our area”, he said.
It
would be added that the APC in Kaduna commenced its membership
registration in a peaceful atmosphere with reports of high turnout.
Some
members of the party, however revealed that there were hitches, when
they trooped to the registration centers without passport photographs.
