“However, since you assumed office as a representative of the people of the aforementioned constituency, your constituents felt neglected as you stopped visiting them and shunned participating in all the political activities of Jama’are local government area in particular”. The statement reads.

Buttressing their points further, the APC stakeholders alleged that recently, Jama’are, APC conducted congresses through consensus as recommended by the national body saying however the lawmaker played no role in the process of conducting the congresses.

“We noticed that because you emanated from Itas-Gadau local government, you allowed the saboteurs to temper with the result of our local government. Your inactions were highly unacceptable and did not go down well with all APC critical stakeholders of Jama’are local government area”. They said.
