Residents of Saye ward in Bichi local government area have called for the reversal of suspension order given to their elected councilor Malam Nura Bayero Saye for challenging thies who claimed the total repairs of electricity installations in his area.
In a special interaction with the reporters Teusday at Saye, the people o the ward condemned the suspension of the councilor and seek urgent reversal for the progress of democracy, unity and political development in the Eastern part of Bichi local government.
Malam Aliyu Mustapha Saye, told the visitors that ” our councilor did not challenge the those who claimed that their electricity installations have been repaired and put in use due to non respect to his leaders rather than to bring out the real facts of the matter for full scrutiny”.
He lamented that the suspension was a great slap to democracy where he called on the executive chairman, the legislative council, the APC stakeholders to reverse their decision of suspending their duly elected councilor because he did not mean to embarrass anybody about the issue of electricity installations but just due to being out the truth.
In his remark, Malam Isyaku Yahaya disclosed that ” the issue of repairing our electricity installations and connections is not done in anyway, but those who claimed that the installations were repaired and put in use did not speak what had really happened may be due to their interests, but what our councilor said is that there is the need for actions about the repairs of Saye electricity rather than lips service which is absolutely true”.
All those who spoke to newsmen at Saye described the suspension as surprising deu to the efforts of their councilor to ensure that his electorates benefited fully from the democratic devidends where they called on the executive chairman and his lieutenants to reverse the suspension in order to restore democracy.
Most of the electric poles we’re seen broken while the service wires remained on ground which affected the electrification of Saye Zuru, Unguwar Salihai, gidan gishiri, gidan malamai Bankaura, Bumbun and Kwamarawa destinations.
