Some angry Youths from the Northern senatorial District of Adamawa State led by a Social activist and the Youth leader Centre for Peace and Positive leadership, Comrade Kabiru Duhu inform our correspondent in Yola that they are planning for a mass protest against the Senator representing the zone, Binta Masi Garba as according to them she is “performing below expectations”.
We gathered that an ongoing wide consultation with relevant stakeholders is taken place in the entire Northern Senatorial District ahead of the forthcoming protest believe to take place by next week.
One of the organizer, Mr Barnabas Peter angrily commented that the protest is necessary to tell the world that their representative at the red chambers (senate) is performing below expectations, doesn’t listen to the complaint of her constituents and have never held a meeting with their people to know the problems they are facing.
“Binta Masi have woefully failed us, and I don’t think we can be comfortable with her in 2019,our prayers is that God should help us replace her with a better candidate.” Barnabas stated
He further explained that Madagali is one of the Local Government with myriads challenges as regards the issue of insurgency,even the vigilantes that are working day and night to help the military Men safe guarding our communities are not getting anything from her.
Duhu could not be reached to get more details on the protest because of bad network in Madagali axis.
Efforts on countless times were made to get across the Senator was not possible, which we later learned that she is outside the country on official assignment.
We must recall her as guaranteed by the constitution of the federal republic of Nigeria. We will commence with the collection of voters signatures to get to the 50% mark required to recall her.Although her case may teach some of her irresponsible colleagues in the red and green chambers lesson that power belongs to the people.
