Ignore Proponents Of My Recall, Kaduna Senator Tells Constituents

Senator representing Kaduna Central Senatorial District, Lawal Adamu Usman has taken a swipe at a group, Kaduna Peace and Tranquility Forum (KPTF), over a threat to mobilise for his recall from the National Assembly (NASS) for alleged non-performance.

Usman, fondly called Senator LA by his constituents and supporters in Kaduna Central Senatorial District, also deplored the purported 14-day ultimatum issued to him by the amorphous group to account for his stewardship since his election.

In a statement by his senior special assistant on media, Segun Olatunji, the lawmaker described the KPTF‘s outbursts as the ranting of a discomfited group of meddlesome interlopers seeking to misinform unsuspecting members of the public for the selfish political gains of their masterminds and sponsors.

He enjoined the good people of Kaduna Central Senatorial District and the general public in Kaduna State not to be deceived by the gibberish the KPTF was churning out, as it lacked any iota of truth.

Senator Usman also stated that the threat by the group to mobilise for his recall from the National Assembly does not cut any ice with him, urging the good people of Kaduna Central Senatorial District to remain calm, disregard the threat and treat the KPTF‘s ranting with the disdain it deserves.

The lawmaker noted that it is needless to remind the amorphous group as the KPTF and their ilk that being the Senate Committee Chairman on Education (Basic and Secondary) and Vice Chairman Senate Committee on Banking, Insurance and Financial Matters is no child‘s play, as such Committees of national importance are not for the lazy and weak-minded politicians like the sponsors of their group.

The statement partly reads, „No one should be surprised by the outbursts of this group. They should not be taken more seriously as far as we‘re concerned. When people wake up from the wrong side of their bed, they‘re bound to be still groggy and not know when they talk bunkum and misfire.

“The puerile threat by KPTF during their recent press conference to mobilise for the recall of the Distinguished Senator for alleged ‚failure to stand up and speak on development issues,‘ if he fails after a 14-day ultimatum to give an account of his stewardship, smacks of a dress rehearsal for a light-hearted comedy of errors show.

“The unconscionable and uninformed outbursts of the KPTF are a good testament to their crass ignorance about Senator LA‘s germane contributions at the National Assembly. KPTF needs some good tutoring and education to be purged of its unabashed ignorance.

“Many people know their warped story isn‘t unusual. Their latest outburst is a diseased symptom of the bad and rotten politicking of their sponsors.

“For the information of the KPTF and their sponsors, Senator LA has, from Day One, made a ‚down payment‘ on change with the good people of Kaduna Central Senatorial District through his campaign manifesto, which convinced the electorate to freely and magnanimously give him their mandate at the polls in the 2023 general elections.

“For the avoidance of doubt, Senator LA believes in serious change rather than a hopeless gimmick. He believes in grip and not drift.

“Right from the run-up to the 2023 elections, he had rolled up his sleeves for the big task ahead. And since his election into the National Assembly, he has continuously been doing the hard graft, working his fingers to the bones, so to say, all in the corporate interests of the good people of Kaduna Central Senatorial District.

“Only the blind will deny the obvious and concrete fact that Senator LA‘s tenure, in the past one year, has been defined by a strong and unprecedented commitment to education, infrastructural development, economic empowerment and delivery of sundry dividends of democracy to his constituents and others. His comprehensive approach to addressing the needs of the good people of Kaduna Central Senatorial District and even beyond is nonparallel and unprecedented,“ he said.
