Gov. Tanko Al-Makura of Nasarawa State on Thursday advised his detractors to to stop attacking his administration because they would always fail.
This is contained in a statement issued in Abuja and signed by the governor’s Senior Special Assistant, Media, Malam Sani Mairiga.
Al-Makura said despite disparaging and derogatory comments against his administration by the detractors, he would continue to deliver the dividends of democracy to the people of the state.
“Allah will continue to guide and direct me to deliver to my people the dividends of democracy.”
Al-Makura said his ascension to power as governor of the state was divinely orchestrated.
According to him, he, therefore, has nothing to fear, especially from those who are hell-bent on pulling him down.
“Some of my detractors have held various positions, they should come out and tell us what they have done to better the living conditions of our people,” the governor said.
He said anybody attempting to run his government down through whatever means would end up having high blood pressure because such attempts were bound to fail.
The governor said that he would continue to ensure that Nasarawa’s funds got down to the poor through the provision of infrastructure for the benefit of all.
“Some people want power by hook or by crook. I want to let them know that power comes from Allah and He bestows it on whom He wants, and nobody has the audacity to question Him,’’ he said.
Al-Makura said his government would continue to do its best to uplift the living standard of the people.
He said that his administration would create an enabling environment where sustainable peace and tranquility would prevail.
He warned mischief makers to desist from acts capable of causing disaffection among the citizens of the state.
Al-Makura also called on politicians to avoid politics of rancour and acrimony as it would not augur well for the development of the state.
