Palliatives: APC chieftain accuses Fintiri of selective distribution


… says ‘you’re Gov for all Adamawa people not only PDP,’ demands Tinubu’s intervention

A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress in Adamawa State, Mr Hussaini Gambo (Nakura), has accused Governor Ahmadu Umaru Fintiri of selective distribution of the Federal Government palliatives sent for the people of the state.

Hussain, who also is known as an advocate of the masses and Chairman of the Adamawa Concerned Citizens Association, said Governor Fintiri rebranded the foodstuff intervention packages with his photo inscription and assigned local government councilors to share them, thereby violating the principles of equity and inclusion.

According to him, the APC House of Assembly members as major stakeholders in their respective constituencies were not part of the committee, and the action of the governor will prevent many from benefiting from the federal government gesture.

He worried that the deliberate action to sideline the APC lawmakers is a clear indication that the palliative is only going to be shared among the members of the PDP ruling party in the state.

Hussain reminded the Governor that his administration is not only for PDP members, saying that he is very much aware of how thousands of APC members have voted for his second term bid during the last governorship election.

Hussaini called on President Ahmed Bola Tinubu to intervene in the Adamawa palliative provided by the Federal Government because Governor Fintiri is out to sideline APC members.

Hussaini in an interview with our Yola correspondent said the Governor is also out for vendetta and only wants a particular class of people to enrich themselves over the palliative that is meant for everyone.

“Sir intervene on the palliative you gave for everyone in Adamawa, else APC loyalists will never get anything as Governor Fintiri is clearly showing out his color to give only his political pundits.

“All the committees formed in charge of the distribution there is no APC stakeholder included, even our elective office holders like the state house of assembly lawmakers have been excluded from being the committee.

“How can there be equal distribution? The so-called councillors in charge of the distribution at ward levels are all PDP elected, no none of them is from the APC or any political party. Something urgent has to be done. ” Hassan said

All efforts to reach the Chief press Secretary, Mr Humawashi Wonosikou to commend proved abortive as his phone number is not being picked while called.

Our reporter visited his office in government house but was told by his secretary that is not on seat.
