Below is the controversial Facebook post which angered the governor, and for which Mr. Faggowas arrested, detained and arraigned in court for allegedly defaming the Mr. Yuguda’s character.
“Those of us resident in Abuja, arewitnessing yet another Bauchi wedding, this time we understand is the Governor’s son that is hooking the one-time PDP’s Chairmanship aspirant’s daughter. Inside sources said, already:
“Top officials of the Min. for Local Govt, along with the ALGON Bauchi State chapter are asking the 20 LGA’s to sign out N2m each as donation for the wedding next Saturday of the Gov’s son. They awarded contract for calendars and note pads to an Abuja printingpress. Contract for coffee mugs, Wall clocks, bags, badges etc. was given to a Lagos based lady. They will all carry the pictures of the groom and the bride. An SUV Jeep was also suggested as a wedding present to Ango. Finally the 20 LGAchairmen will all send their wives to Abj where the jamboree is taking place because Yuguda is now Abuja based.
“The story is all over town too, that in April $80,000 was sent to the ango on his graduation by theSSG, on the orders of the Gov. This is as a result of request by the groom to buy a limited edition M/Benz Series.
“In Nov, 2009, when the Gov latestwife, also acquired thru Bauchi funds, was having her first child in Washington DC the sum of £150,000 was sent to the SSG by the then Accountant General for onward transmission to Yuguda. One wonders, why all this, as he has 21 kids from 3 wives earlier and all of them born in Nigeria. Thethinking is that he is using Bauchi state money for the purchase of citizenship thru birth, for his latest2 kids in the USA. Already a house has since been purchased for Yuguda in Maryland through a once upon a time VOA staff, aide of his.
“These things are happening in a state where staff salaries are becoming very difficult to pay and inevitable retrenchment is looming day in day out. God save Bauchi State.”source:http://www.premiumtimesng.com/regional/107951-bauchi-governor-yuguda-dismisses-civil-servant-over-facebook-post-on-corruption.html

Yet another example of the tyranny one can expect with the introduction of a state police force.

Facebook comment: Yuguda sacks civil servant over his son’s wedding

Idris Isa Yuguda, son of Bauchi state governor

A Bauchi civil servant Abbas Ahmed Fago, who commented on Facebook on the wedding of Idris Isa Yuguda, son of Bauchi state governor has been sacked by the state government.

This was contained in a letter of his sack signed by Ibrahim Shehu for the state head of service dated November 13, 2012, a copy of which was obtained by Blueprint yesterday.

The letter, with reference number GO/CSM/S/DIS/I/T.2 titled, ‘Termination of Appointment’, stated: “I am directed to refer to the Civil Service Commission’s letter No CSC/PRO/s/001/T.V dated November 1, 2012, and to convey the commission’s approval for your suspension and termination of appointment from Bauchi state service with effect from October 10, 2012 as your service is no longer required please.’’

Fago, a staff of the state Ministry of Finance and Economic Development, was said to have posted on his Facebook wall comments over expenses made on the wedding fatiha of the governor’s son.

The comment and Yuguda’s subsequent court action had generated a lot of bad blood from civil society, politicians and members of the public. The charges, according to the police first information report (FIR), was defamation of the present administration and cause of injurious falsehood.

Last Thursday, Fago was discharged when the team of lawyers led by the accused’s counsel faulted the two charges against the accused on the ground that the first charge consent of the Director of Public Prosecution, was not sought while in the second charge, only the aggrieved person, who is Governor Isa Yuguda, was the only person eligible to complain about the matter, substitute not the state commissioner for Justice and “you can’t substitute the duo with the commissioner.’’

The presiding chief Magistrate, Adamu Muhammad Kafin Madaki discharged Faggo and struck out the case.
