Date:

By; TINA PHINEAS, Yola
Adamawa  State Government  has threatened to dump the party  through which it came to power for the opposition  as a result of impunity in the All People’s Congress (APC).
The Chief of Staff and Director General of Bindow Campaign
Organisation, Alh.Abdulrahman Abba Jimeta gave the threat while addressing a delegation of APC from its National secretariat in Yola to conduct North East mini convention.
The team headed by  Senator Abdulnadir Alkali Jajere were in Yola to brief the government  on plans to fill the vacant positions in the party in the North East created by appointments in the state.
“We here are loyal, but tell the leadership of the party that there is limit to loyalty and that party business is optional, in fact, even religion you have the right to change it because of pressure, so tell them we are loyal,but there is limit to that, especially if they are not recognizing us, since we are the army of the party that suppose to enjoy the fruits of the party or out of frustration we join the
opposition enemy party”.
Abdulrahman lamented that various appointments  were made without consulting them,even as many of the appointees were not known to the state government.
“Unfortunately, there is no difference between an opposition  state and APC-led state like Adamawa because even appointments at the federal, we are not consulted, some of them we don’t even know them,” he stated.
The chief of staff maintained that even some of the federal projects that the state suppose to enjoy are been hijack by some people in Abuja, referring to projects like that of UBEC and the MDGs.
In his words, ” Even our own rights that we are suppose to get through some agencies like  UBEC and MDGs were hijacked, and we contacted them, we were told that somebody somewhere has collected the money and is doing the contract somewhere”.
Addressing the delegation,Governor Muhammadu Umaru Jibrilla appreciated the coming of the committee and pledged to co-operate with them in the discharge of their assignment.
He commended the leadership style of the National chairman of APC Chief John Odidie Oyegun pledging his government loyalty to the party.
Responding,the Leader of the delegation, Senator Abdulkadir Alkali Jajere said that they were in the state, in preparation for the mini zonal congress of the party due to the exiting vacancies in the zone,
In a swift reaction, Commissioner for Information and Strategy, Comrade Ahmad Sajoh decried that the media were not fair to his boss (Governor Jibrilla) by ascribing such statement by a personal aide.
Sajoh insisted that the statement credited to Jimeta were his personal opinion not stand of Government in the state .
“This is his personal opinion, not that of the governor nor of the state government.
“We are loyal to the leadership of our Great party APC and the central Government led by our President Muhammadu Buhari in the country,”Sajoh pledged
