A frontline federal Lawmaker representing Jere federal constituency of Borno state, Hon Ayuba Mohammed Bello has described the election of President Muhammadu Bello as divinely sanctioned in order to save Nigeria from social, political and economic collapse. According to Hon Bello: ‘Looking at the anti-corruption war and other policies of this administration, all Nigerians must admit whether we like it or not, that President Muhammadu Buhari was sent by the Almighty God to save Nigeria from total collapse, economically, politically and otherwise. If President Buhari had not been elected, Nigeria would have been brought to its knees some months ago. The single biggest problem we have in this country is corruption as it gives birth to other problems like poverty, hunger, illiteracy, underdevelopment and anti-social crimes like armed robbery, kidnapping etc. It is indeed a vicious circle and until we tackle the hydra-headed monster called corruption, we will not get anywhere and I am very confident that President Buhari will effectively checkmate and neutralize corruption and its related vices. Also the president is renowned for his transparency and impartiality, he is not for anybody and he is for everybody, He does not believe in party or individuals, he is not sectional or sectarian, he is for all Nigerians’.
On the thorny
issue of IDPs relocation, Hon Bello observed that contrary to certain
insinuations raised by some members: ‘the situation is not ripe for the return
of IDPs to their original homes or the re-opening of schools as the security
situation is still precarious in most parts of the state apart from Maiduguri Metropolitan.
Even the security agencies are asking people to leave the Sambisa Forest area so
that they can continue mopping up operations against the insurgents. So how can
you ask people to return to a zone still engaged in war. I don’t think it is
appropriate’ – Hon Ayuba concluded.
