Image
The Zamfara Youth Network (ZYN) has described SaharaReporters publication alleging that Minister of State for Defence, Bello Mohammed Matawalle, gave 36 Hilux vehicles to bandits and still chats with terrorists as a complete and malicious lie from beginning to end.    Speaking in Gusau today, Comrade Musa Usman said the story is nothing but a desperate attempt to rubbish the outstanding results the Minister has delivered since his appointment.   The youth body stated categorically that no such vehicles were ever handed to bandits under Matawalle’s watch as governor or as minister.    “These are recycled lies that were investigated and thrown away by security agencies years ago,” Musa said.    “Every single bandit leader mentioned in the story is already dead – neutralised by the same military operations Matawalle is directing right now.

By Seyi Bakare If a lie journeys for 20 years, truth will catch up with it in just a day, so says the Yoruba people of Nigeria’s South-West. And that aptly captures the situation in Ogun State where, despite ceaseless onslaughts sponsored by dark forces, the achievements of the state governor, Prince Dapo Abiodun, continue to dwarf the noise of naysayers.  From deep ports to airports, and from rail to road, the Iperu-born Prince continues to record landmarks that establish the Gateway State as Nigeria’s top investment destination. FInheriting a state in which propaganda often overshadowed the provision of infrastructure, Abiodun had his work uncannily cut out for him—bad roads everywhere, chaotic transport infrastructure, a health sector in crisis and an education sector clearly comatose--and it did not help that the same forces who left vast swathes of the state in a state of disrepair for so long were always intent to incite the public and pile their failures on his government us...
