APC lacks basis to criticise Gov Ishaku ― Aide

The Special Adviser to Governor Darius Ishaku on Political Matters, Alhaji Abubakar Bawa on Sunday said the All Progressive Congress (APC) in Taraba State lacks moral basis to criticise the Governor.

Bawa stated this in an interview with journalists while reacting to the press conference by the Taraba State Chairman of APC, Alhaji Ibrahim El-Suldi who accused the Governor of lying over his achievements in the State.

The Special Adviser insisted that Governor Darius Ishaku’s footprints of projects and achievements were visible in all the 168 wards of the State and challenged the APC Chairman to check the State’s progress in health, education, agriculture, water and urban renewal.

“Ordinarily, I wouldn’t have reacted to the claim by Abuja based politicians who have lost touch with home, regarding their accusation that Governor Darius Ishaku lied on national television over his achievements in the State.

“El-Suldi and most of APC leaders in Taraba are Abuja politicians who only come home during elections and as such they have lost touch of development at home. In fact most of them have not visited their electoral wards in the past two years.

“In El-Suldi’s village in Gashaka Local Government, the Governor has renovated the health centre there and is one of the best primary health care centre in the State.

“There is no electoral ward in Taraba today that has not benefitted from the Governor’s intervention either through road construction, water, education and health among others.

“The Governor was given the award of Water Man of the year 2018 and was recently given an award for improving the education sector. These awards speak for themselves,” he said.

While calling on the public to disregard APC verbal attack on the Governor, Bawa assured the people of the State that the administration of Governor Ishaku will not be deterred by their attacks, but will ensure that all ongoing projects in the State are completed before the end of the tenure.
