Mixed reactions trail Jigawa nominee: Mixed reaction has now started trailing the nomination of Malam Suleman Hussain Adamu for Jigawa state ministerial slot. Speaking to Daily Trust on Sunday, the State Zonal Chairman (Jigawa Central) and acting Deputy Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Malam Aminu Nuhu Jahun, faulted the nomination of Adamu for ministerial position because he is not only from the same state but same family of the present Acting Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) and the State Chief of Protocol to the president as well as the state Commissioner of Education.
Malam Jahun said such appointments from a single family was not only undemocratic, but lacked fairness in totality saying, these people occupying these positions hail from Kazaure Emirate.
He, therefore, reminded President Muhammadu Buhari that in Jigawa State it was not only Kazaure Emirate that voted for him, but the state in general.
He called for the reversal of the appointment, just as it happened in Niger State: “We are calling for the reversal of the nomination. There is no fairness in the nomination because it is not only Kazaure Emirate that voted for Buhari in the last general election. He won in Dutse, Hadejia and all across the state.”
According to him, nobody was questioning the qualification of Suleman Hussains Adamu, the present ministerial nominee. The only argument is that such appointment that represents the state at national level must be equitably distributed.
“To us, we all thought, Faruk Adamu will be the person to be nominated for the ministerial position. Faruk Adamu is one of the prominent personalities that laboured for the party in the state. If Faruk Adamu has any problem, that should be made public,” he stated.
He further added that if people like Faruk Adamu could not be nominated, the state has quite a number of qualified persons like Haruna Birniwa, Dr. Ahmed Ishaq, Professor Ado Shehu, Engineer Habu Gumel and Professor Ibrahim Ahmed.
