I read from one online paper titled PRNigeria baseless accusations that are politically motivated aimed at dragging the attention of the state government from continuing the masses oriented programs and projects it’s presently championing for the overall interest of the state
It’s laughable how Mr Dahiru Kera was claiming that his Excellency the executive Governor of Gombe state is not comfortable with his ambition to contest the state assembly seat from Nafada North
If kera is quick to forget, let’s remind him that, in 2019 even when his boss was the Governor and their party leader, he made the same attempt to contest and unfortunately defeated blue and black in the primary election by the present member, how then can his current ambition become a threat to his excellency who send their leader and his party in to their political retirement in 2019???
Kera and his likes should be reminded that you can’t remain in Kaduna and expect to win elevation in Biri, it’s never done that way. He should quickly relocate to the village and seek their mandate at least to win the primary election this time around and wait for his imminent defeat at the general election of course by the APC because even Nafada local government area is a no go area to PDP now courtesy of Governor Yahaya’s masses oriented projects all over the local council.
Again, I think Kera was economical with the truth when claimed Governor Inuwa Yahaya has openly threatened him, for what if I may ask? I challenged anybody to make the threat available for us to see! Les I forget, Governor Inuwa has never for once denied Dankwambo, Goje or anybody entrance into Gombe town, then who is Kera for that matter???
On the purported audio clip interview between his Excellency and one Abdulwabu who claimed to be a VOA reporter, it was very clear that the so-called reporter had regretted his action of misreporting Gombe State Government over the retrenchment of civil servants instead of casual staff as it is supposed to be. We all know it is a tradition in Gombe state, every Government has its method of engaging youths, for example, Former Governor Goje uses GOSEPA, and Governor Dankwambo sacked them and formed his own Marshalls which were used to rigged elections during the PDP doom days.
What then is an offence, if His Excellency also sacks the PDP marshals and replaced them with APC marshals such as Development facilitators, G. step, AcP etc since it is a tradition??? What are we talking about, please???
On the purported Sani Labaran story, we have all witnessed the campaign of calumny most PDP bloggers are habitually used to in Gombe, for instance, if someone is claiming to post an “anti-masses project” by the government, is he also reporting the industrial park in Dadinkowa, which is projected to employ hundred of thousand of youths? What about the Wawa Zange grazing reserve project? Or the total overhaul of all the primary healthcare facilities across the state? Are they also reporting the newly constructed general hospitals in Kumo and Bajoga? What about the new hospital in Kagarawal etc. Opposition isn’t madness, it’s also a call to service, when the government did something good you comment and equally condemn when otherwise
Any bigger who cultivates the habit of personal abuse to his Excellency or anybody will have himself to blame because the constitution of Nigeria made it clear for anyone to seek legal redress if he so wishes whenever his character is deformed by any means
I also want to remind everyone that, His Excellency is the only governor who decides to hold a press conference every 4 months (quarter) of every year, he uses the opportunity to allow everyone to come in and ask his question about his government, this is the first time in our history, I challenge everyone to tell me if there was a single press conference during Dankwambo’s regime??? Who then is the press-friendly leader? All bloggers are encouraged and allowed to talk on issues freely, but unfortunately, some PDP hawkers use the opportunity to reign all sorts of insult to the person of his Excellency, can you now blame him if he decides to take legal redress???
It’s high time PDP in Gombe State should come back to the drawing table and think about how to change the narrative by bringing to on table what they have for the Gombe people if elected, they should come back on their knees to apologize to the good people of Gombe State because it was not for no reason Gombawas decided to send them parking in 2019 otherwise they should forget it as his Excellency the executive governor of Gombe State, Alhaji Muhammadu Inuwa Yahaya has appeared to be a prayer answered to the masses and the best talakawa friendly leader ever produced in the history of Gombe state with the fear of God as such no campaign of calumny will bring him down.
