Gov Shettima Queries Commissioner For Distributing Shoe Polish by ViaFast(op): 6:58am On May 18, 2018

Borno Governor, Kashim Shettima has queried his Commissioner for Higher Education, Usman Jaha, for distributing kits with shoe polish and other items to youths in Gwoza as part of his personal welfare programme.

While Reading Daily Post , Aproko Girl Learnt that A top government official made the disclosure on Thursday.

He said Governor Shettima lambasted the Commissioner for embarrassing not only himself but the administration.

The source said: “The Governor reminded the Commissioner that his Ministry has so far facilitated the approval of foreign Universities Scholarship to more than 300 Borno Youths, among them almost 100 ladies studying medicine abroad as part of the Governor’s standard in human resource development.

“The Governor also reminded the Commissioner that his ministry is building Borno’s first State University after 41 years of the State’s creation and therefore wondered why on earth the Commissioner, who is a Degree holder, chose to distribute shoe polish as part of his own understanding of human capacity development for youths in Gwoza”.

Meanwhile, the Commissioner has issued clarification on the matter.

He explained that the programme was his personal intervention based on the request from the beneficiaries.

A statement he signed read: “The programme is my personal effort and it is based on the peculiar needs of the beneficiaries in Gwoza.

“All communities have their needs and these needs change from time to time. In my years as a politician who served at the Borno State Assembly before becoming a Commissioner, I have always interacted with constituents before making any welfare intervention.

“I make interventions based on their peculiar needs. There are times people ask for a particular support and we don’t have the liberty of imposing our preferences.

“We support communities in all sectors that include education, vocational skills and businesses. There are records. What do what our people want.

“I have once seen the picture of a serving Governor from a different part of this country distributing life chickens to citizens and I am sure it was based the peculiarities of needs.

“A good politician must be conscious of the peculiarities of needs in the communities he or she represents. A politician must be pragmatic and must not ashamed of doing what his people want because the people make the politician.

“What is important to me is the happiness of our people in Gwoza, nothing else really matter”.

this is a good move and all these politicians must be stopped from practicing money politics. we do not want shoe polish we do not want bags of salt. we want development. it is time people start getting responsible and stop acting irrational. all those old men who sold their children future for bags or rice and nigerian wax, are they expecting those kids to care for them today? 17 years ago in 2007 so many parents sold their kids for free. today some are about to sell the current children in exchange for shoe polish.
