CSOs demand transparency from Zamfara governor, pass vote of no confidence

The group, in a statement on Tuesday, June 4, signed by its chairman, Hon. Lawal Usman Mohammed, stated that the governor has allegedly failed to fulfill his election promises on security, health, agriculture, education, civil service, and women and youth empowerment.

The group demanded that the internally generated revenue, IGR, of the state and the federal allocation for the state, among others be made public.

The group urged Governor Lawal to take governance seriously, emphasizing his accountability to the people and God.

They highlighted the governor’s recent advertisement of “legacy projects,” which were renovations of existing infrastructure rather than new developments.

The group said:

They pointed out that Governor Lawal, during his campaign, pledged to provide security within 100 days in office, adding that a year later, the state remains under siege by armed bandits terrorizing all 14 Local Government Areas.

He said:

In another report, some constituents of the Kaura Namoda and Birnin Magaji federal constituency in Zamfara have notified Tajudeen Abbas, the speaker of the House of Representatives, of their plans to recall Sani Jaji.
