The spokesperson of the former governor of Zamfara State, Comr Anas Abdullahi Kaura, has called on former Inspector General of Police (IGP) MD Abubakar and General Ali Gusau to address the security issues troubling Zamfara State.
In a interview with journalists in Abuja, Comr Kaura emphasized the importance of patriotism towards Zamfara State, especially regarding security matters, urging both Ali Gusau and the former governor to utilize their influence and resources to put an end to the state’s security problems.
Kaura alleged that former Nigerian Police Chief MD Abubakar had previously presented a security report on Zamfara State’s insecurity to former governor Bello Matawalle, but it was disregarded. MD Abubakar expressed confidence that he would overcome this challenge.
The security report has now been passed on to the new governor of Zamfara State, Dauda Lawan Dare.
Kaura asserted that this report, as promised during the new governor’s reception ceremony, would contribute to solving Zamfara State’s security problems in a short period.
He recalled that during the former Governor nine month in the office,
nobody was killed or kidnapped.
“Bello Matawalle’s government appointed 7,400 youths, and questions have arisen regarding the payment of their salaries, considering the state’s limited allocation of 3 billion Naira. With no significant tax or other income sources, the state faces both security and economic challenges.
“The former governor has taken various steps to tackle insecurity, and people have witnessed his efforts to suspend communication channels between robbers and their informers.
“Furthermore, the former governor has been proactive in addressing issues such as the desecration of the Holy Qur’an, ordering anyone arrested in such acts to be brought to court and sentenced to death.
“In less than sixty days since the new government of Zamfara assumed power, over one thousand people were killed, and more than five hundred others were abducted.”
” Reports also revealed that the new Zamfara state government terminated the employment of over ten thousand individuals, highlighting their evident failure. Many Zamfara state natives are now praising the former governor, Dr. Bello Matawalle, for his timely and complaint-free payment of monthly salaries, particularly for the youth inclusion.
” This contrast reveals that the new Zamfara government seems to prioritize family and friends over the welfare of the masses.”
