By Lola Seriki-Idahosa --The people of Bade Local Government Area in Yobe North Senatorial District, Yobe state has expressed disappointment over the leadership style of Senate president, Dr. Ahmed Lawan.

In a press statement signed by the Bade Progressive Forum, BPF and made available to Trace Reporters, stated that the nomination of one Ibrahim Babagana (YUREMA) as the Bade LG Committee Caretaker Chairman by the senate president has further divide the constituents.


According to the statement, "It is of note that the Constituents from Bade LGA and other communities in the Yobe North Senatorial District are not please with the leadership style of the President of the Senate, Dr. Ahmad Lawan, PhD, GCON.

"These gross escalated when the President of the Senate, Dr. Ahmad Ibrahim Lawan nominated one Ibrahim Babagana (YUREMA), as the Bade Local Government Committee Caretaker Chairman.

"It is generally believe that the nominated Ibrahim Babagana is not supposed to be the beneficiary of such elevated seat, despite commitments from other loyalists who stood firm in both thick and thin.

"Parts of what we can describe as marginasation in Dr. Lawan's style of leadership and selection are stated thus:
Despite that Bade tribe is the majority in the local Government, the Commissioner is from Manga tribe.

"Secondly, APC Party Chairman is also from Manga tribe. The Co- ordinator Tinubu/Shatima is from Manga tribe and Chairman caretaker committee selected by Dr. Ahmed I. Lawan is from the same Manga tribe, Ibrahim Babagana (Yurema) by name.

"With all these imbalances, Bade tribe have been marginalized by Dr. Ahmed I Lawan and his so called Boys.

"The President of the Senate should know that, all power belong to Allah and He will give to whoever He wishes.

"Lawan deliberate act of hindering the political rise of any Bade and Katuzu sons in particular will not help him retain power forever.

"We call on the Executive Governor of Yobe State, Alhaji Mai Mala Buni, CFR to also look into these inbalances and act accordingly in redressing these anormalies. Our amiable Governor should remember that the Yobe indigents entrusted him the leadership, which is purely an act of Allah and every human will stand before Him on the judgement day to account for his or her deeds.

"For the President of the Senate to restore this love and cooperation from the Base tribe, he must henceforth shelve all personal interests in selecting political appointments and offices. When this is done, there will be a cooperation and understanding among the people.

"The Bade people are well known to peaceful neighbourliness, we are dedicated to the growth of our communities and we are fully in support of the activities of the President of the Senate when we are part of the plans. We urged our dear Leader, Dr. Ahmad Lawan to adjust these imbalances and place as parts of his priority, the Bade tribe.
