A political pressure group known as Tafawa-Balewa and Bogoro Youths Vanguard has been berated over its recent ill-comments against the Speaker of the House of Representatives in the 8th Assembly, Rt Hon. Yakubu Dogara.
A staunch supporter of the former Speaker, Comrade John Rica Emmanuel while hitting back at the group stated that, “It is your paymaster that is struggling to become local godfather.”
John Rica Emmanuel who issued a press statement to newsmen on Wednesday, mocked the Chairman of the group, Habila Daniel that the former Speaker has gone beyond local politics.
According to him, “It’s you and your masters that are struggling to practice godfatherism in local politics. That is why you are conjuring lies, blackmail, backstabbing and other nefarious things to install a member in the Bauchi House of Assembly, others as local Government Chairmen and Councillors.”
He further explained that with the antecedents of the group, the members lack the capacity to begin to chat politics with the former Nigeria’s number Four citizen, stressing that Yakubu Dogara’s political relevance made him the envy of Governor Bala Mohammed who sees him now as a serious threat politically.
According to John Rica Emmanuel, “Dogara’s personal integrity and prudence gave birth to the emergence of Professor Suleiman Bogoro as one-time TETFund Executive Secretary.”
He accused the leader of the group for causing harm to Zaar land using different fake groups because of money.
“He and his said Vanguard were in ‘Baba Gonto Youth wing’. They were paid to create faction to the Zaar Youth Development Association, a pressure group that has stood firmly for Zaar land and its struggles for self-rule and actualization”, Rica stated.
He added that Habila Daniel and his Vanguards were paid to spread lies against the paramount ruler of Zaar people, HRM Air Commodore Ishaku Komo, under another fake name “Peace Ambassadors”, but didn’t succeed.
Comrade Rica who revealed that the group Chairman who tried to use the Zaar Development Association (ZDA) to achieve his material gains, begged delegates and contestants before election to make him ELCOM Chairman but failed, became frustrated and started misleading the ZDA.
Comrade Rica who advised Habila Daniel against involving in such shameful acts, reminded him that he is not getting any younger, as such, any act against Zaar land may attract God’s wrath.
While cautioning against the trading of Zaar unity, peace and progress for food, money and positions, Comrade Rica asserted that such attitude carries consequences.
On assertions by the group that the former Speaker has no political relevance, Comrade Rica said it is Habila Daniel and his paymasters that have lost relevance because they cannot walk on the streets of their ancestral land freely due to their evil actions against their people.
He noted that the former speaker is in consonant with his people and the Gungzaar Select and has nothing to fear in his ancestral land, to and can walk the streets of Zaar land freely any day, any time, because his heart and intentions towards his people are pure.
“I will like to draw the attention of Governor Bala Muhammad to this inhumanity. These people always lie to you against Rt Hon. Yakubu Dogara just to extort monies from you, monies they will squander in bear parlours. They have succeeded in widening your fight with Dogara, not because they like you or are loyal to you, but because of the money they always get for their acts”, Rica said.
Therefore it will do you more good to desist from listening to these fibbers, and concentrate on governance and transformation of Bauchi state rather than allowing some fatuous idiots to extort you and set you against the people.
