‘I Spend 3 Days In A Month In Yobe’ — Governor Replies Critics
Mai Mala Buni, governor of Yobe, has reacted to claims that he’s not always on ground to manage the affairs of the state.
Buni has come under heavy criticism over his purported absence from the state since he took over as the caretaker chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Speaking in an interview with the BBC, the governor said he spends at least three days in a month in the state.
He said he’s not failed to live up to his obligations, noting that he’s performed his duties effectively and diligently even when he is not in the state.
He added that his duty in the ruling party is not impeded his efforts to discharge his responsibilities.
“On the issue of staying, there is no way I can spend a month without spending three or four days in Yobe state. And then even if I return to Yobe, I won’t advertise or make it public that today I will be in Yobe and tomorrow I will be leaving,” the governor said.
“Wait, Let me land, listen to me, I won’t be revealing to the public that I came to Yobe or when I am leaving. And at this age of technology, when will anybody say that there were bunch of files waiting for me? Even before I came here I don’t know the numbers (of files I treated).”
