Sometimes I wonder why people think that Kogi State Governor, Capt Idris Wada is been criticized unnecessarily. In a democratic setting the key attribute that is expected from any elected representative is accountability, transparency and sensitivity to the plight of the people. But here in kogi state we are faced with a government headed by wada who is tactically pregnant with the unwanted babies of corruption, irresponsibility, and insensitivity.
Very Very unfortunate and pathetic as our conditions is: comes the emergence of a group of e-political sycophants who were from the same constituency of poverty, disease and infrastructural decay asking us why we criticize Wada. This is a government that has received almost a trillion Naira in federal allocations plus the internally generated revenue,what has Wada done with those funds? It is a question that is been asked by any true blooded Kogite.
This is one of the highest level of non-accountability an irresponsibility.
Look at the way the issue of last year’s flood was handled, money and relief materials meant for the victims were out rightly embezzled by the government and its officials, the only thing the victims got was a 3000 Naira compensation.
Also, this is a government that is responsible for the payment of half salaries to local government staff. Primary school teachers are on strike. Dug 3 boreholes at the cost of 36 million Naira, awarded two roads at the cost of 1 billion Naira (embezzlement of the highest order). Even the youth are also victim of the insensitivity nature of the Wada regime, forcing them to pay 3,500 Naira for non-existing vacancy in the Teaching Service Commission (TSC), a government turning itself into employment scammer.
Where are the GOOD roads initiated and completed, or the hospitals, schools or any infrastructural facilities/social amenities initiated and completed by Wada administration? Yet some e-sycophants see no reason why we should criticize Wada.
We can not fold our hands and see the government flaunting the unwanted pregnancy of corruption, embezzlement, irresponsibility and insensitivity all about in the state, hence we half employed the non-violent approach of administering the abortions pills to terminate the unwanted pregnancy and it’s pre-natal nurses, the e-political sycophants and propagandist, via intellectual, and constructive criticisms.
