El-rufai Probe: Kaduna Citizens Must Unite, Demand Justice – Hayab

The immediate past chairman of Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) Kaduna State chapter, Rev. Dr John Joseph Hayab has called on Kaduna citizens to unite and insist that justice is done over  revelations of alleged money laundering and squandering of public funds against the immediate past governor, Nasir El-Rufai and his appointees.

He added that everyone must be compelled by law to refund the collective fortunes of the citizenry or face the consequences prescribed by law.

Hayab stated this in a writeup titled; “When the Lion Eats the Forbidden Meat” which reflects on  the report of Kaduna State House of Assembly’s Ad hoc committee which investigated the loans collected by the El-Rufai administration.

He said the money that is  unaccounted for, as reported by the KDSHA committee, calls for wonder if those who cornered the fortunes of the state into private pockets have any conscience at all.

Hayab added that the other cause for worry is why should the masses of Kaduna suffer when very few individuals stash away loans purportedly taken to better their lives and at the end of the day deny the populace the services promised them.

“The paradox is that the so-called “tough posture” the former governor displayed with an air of “know it all” could be associated with the typical way lions in the jungle behave, chasing away other animals only to eat all accrued meat alone.

“Besides, the sad development tells a lot about the damage praise singing can cause society, whether at the federal, state, or local level.

“What is more worrying is that many talented and industrious young educated persons who should be in the front calling on leaders to be accountable now seem dedicated to praise singing, trying to paint individuals in leadership positions with little or no integrity to look angelic for a pot of soup at the expense of generations unborn.

“On account of the charge of preliminary findings on the dealing by Elrufai’s led government, I strongly appeal to Kaduna State citizens to unite and insist that justice is served.

“Anyone who fails to account for the collective fortunes of the citizenry should be compelled by law to refund the funds side-tracked or face the consequences prescribed by law.

“When people engage in divisive action to cover up for the evil they do, it is godly people who should come out publicly and unite to condemn and resist such a move.

“Our children and future generations will not forgive us if we keep quiet and allow evil like the revelation coming from the investigations by the KDSHA to go with impunity.

“Accordingly, I commend our state assembly members for showing courage to come out strongly united to call wrong by its name irrespective of who is involved. Our support and prayers should not stop until every deceit is exposed,” he said.
