“Truth based on good conscience, must have its take”…. Hon. YapaK

Following allegations by an unidentified member of the Adamawa State Assembly wherein, he accused Gov. Umar Fintiri of Adamawa of having purchased refurbished SUV vehicles for members of the legislature, a public commentator and top critic has debunked the reports, describing as not only false but also, misleading and mischievous.

The rebuttal, according to Comrade Aminu Umar, has become necessary in order to ensure that fifth columnists in the state do not continue in their quest to further create chaos and cause the under development of the state which the Umar Fintiri administration is poised to deliver. 

Fifth columnists are trying to drag the state deep into crises that will not augur well for us all and for selfish reasons known only to them, are springing up allegations that are counterproductive, wicked and malicious in nature.

“Fintiri is determined to provide development to the state but with such baseless and wicked accusations that have remained unfounded. These are capable of creating setbacks and deny the state sustainable developmental policies and good governance that will guide the administration”.

“Criticisms that are constructive in nature are a necessary tool that helps guide any government but certainly, not lies and cheap blackmail and dirty propaganda that cannot be substantiated”, Aminu stressed.         

The allegations against the state governor by an unidentified member of the state assembly, which was reported in an Online news platform, had it that, after they (legislators) hurriedly approved the 9.9 billion naira loan for the governor, he could now turn around to issue them with refurbished SUV’s.

However, Comrade Aminu said it had become expedient in exposing the lie for purpose and sake of good governance.

Comrade Umar noted that only mischievous elements can produce such dangerous accusations that would do the state no good especially with the wave of insurgency that have caused the state much harm than good which the Assembly and the Governor are trying to address.

While the unidentified Assembly member had, insinuated that some of them “were planning to return the alleged SUV’s as refurbished jeep cannot buy our conscience or shut our mouth from asking questions regarding the where about the 9.9 billion naira loan approved for the governor”, he failed to provide evidential proof as the legitimacy or otherwise of his frivolous allegations.

Recall that a prominent voice in the state, Honourable Abdullahi Umar Yapak (APC), representing Vere Constituency in Fufore Local Government Area, in the Adamawa State House of Assembly had reiterated that, “truth based on good conscience, must have its take”.

Yapak, an opposition member in the Adamawa state House of Assembly however believes that, in the same spirit of developing Adamawa; our own state, will not be hypothetical to hide under the cover of anonymity.

“The Jeeps presented to my colleagues are 2019 brand new, not refurbished”.

Asked to respond as regards the N9.9 billion loan being referred to that as having been approved for building of 2,000 housing units to workers across the state, disclosed that the said amount appropriated for the housing units are still with the mortgage bank.

“The money is yet to be accessed by anybody. This is because building is yet to start; arrangement is however ongoing. The anonymous lawmaker is aware of it. So why is he asking for the whereabouts of the money”? He quipped.
