The Secretary clarified that he is an indigene of Buji Local Government and he also resides there, stressing that there is no village or community known as Illirowa as was quoted in some media report.

He said: “As an indigene of Buji Local Government Area and who resides in the Local Government Area, there is no village with the name Illirowa in the area.

Secondly, what is the APC member representing Buji at the Jigawa State House of Assembly doing that will warrant another member representing another local government (Birnin Kudu) who did not come but sent someone to represent him to receive decampees?

“Thirdly, no APC local government party chairman of Buji and party elders in attendance.
