The group said it never expected the kind treatment meted to their communities, religious and traditional rulers adding that it was not part of their bargain prior to the election.
“The insensitive way the governor managed the crisis of our region is audible to the deaf and visible to the blind. We didn’t bargain the endless closure of our tertiary institutions and the balkanisation of micro businesses around the affected schools environment, until El-Rufai came.”
“We are terribly saddened that we used our thumbs to vote for this government that has taken the path of delaying the destinies of our younger ones. Princes and princesses are in regions, delaying the destiny of men, as it was with Daniel and the Prince of Persia in the Bible, persistence made it possible for him to get answer to his prayers, our younger ones should persevere as the El-Rufai they see today, tomorrow he won’t be governor,” the statement added.
“People are living in fear in Chikun, Kajuru, Kaura Jema’a, Kauru and many parts of the state because of government’s inability to protect them. The government we voted has sacked more workers than the insignificant few she has employed.” “Pensioners are languishing in penury despite the quantum of funds the state received as either bailout or Parish club refund. This quantum of income hasn’t improved the lot of our people,” the statement added.
