President Muhammadu Buhari hosted the winners of the Senate and House of Representatives elections in Daura, Katsina, on Monday.

His media aide, Malam Garba Shehu, stated that the president hosted the National Assembly members-elect at his country home in Daura and advised them to “respect the voters and make them feel important.”

“If you don’t, they will wait in ambush for you at the next election.”

“Depending on how you deal with them, they will either keep you in office or they will send you packing.

He congratulated the Senator-elect, Malam Nasiru Sani of the All Progressives Congress (APC), who polled 174,062 votes to beat the incumbent, Sen. Ahmed Babba-Kaita, by more than 10,000 votes.

Babba-Kaita had defected to the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) following his defeat at the APC’s primary election.

Buhari also welcomed the election of Alhaji Aminu Jamo (APC), House of Representatives member-elect for Daura/Sandamu/Mai Adua Federal Constituency, who defeated his PDP opponent by more than 10,000 votes.

The National Legal Adviser of the APC, Ahmed El-Marzuq, who led the elected representatives, told the president that the good showing of the party owed largely to the progress recorded in the senatorial zone under the Buhari presidency.

El-Marzuq cited several projects, which he said had enhanced education, entrepreneurship, social development, and the development of human capital in the area.

He presented copies of the election results to the president.
