I write to draw the attention of the senator representing Bauchi North, Alh. Dr Sama’ila Dahuwa Kaila, about several lamentations over his leadership failures, coming from all angles in Bauchi North to the worst extent that the constituents in question have started giving up on your leadership. This is quite sad, I must say.
Almost everyone in Bauchi North has been confused, saying, “Is there any senator in Bauchi North?” Because nearly all the dividends of democracy are being brought to them by the members of the House of Assembly and the House of Representatives—their senator seems to have disappeared.
Sen. Sama’ila, we had high expectations before we voted you into power. Or could you tell us that it is too early to start judging you? If yes, why did your counterparts support their constituents with several programmes aimed at improving their living standards?
Meanwhile, your counterparts in Bauchi South and Bauchi Central, who, since you assumed office, have been empowering their constituents with skill acquisition materials and others with cash to start businesses of any kind,
One should remind you that Bauchi North needs your activities to sound very effective! However, the rate of people roaming the street without doing anything employable is alarming, as are the domestic terrorists, who are often framed as “yan sara-suka.” But having your supporting hands very extended to them will reduce their number in our midst, if not totally eradicated.
Sir, could you tell us that you don’t know the number of graduates Bauchi State produces yearly without having them employed by both state and federal government agencies? Kindly find the number; maybe you will instantly wake up from your chamber of slumber and start acting.
Since your swearing-in, nothing in the form of empowerment has been brought to Bauchi North by your name. Sadly, even with the palliative that was given by the Federal Government to the senators and House of Representatives members, you hoarded them and failed to distribute them to your constituents with all the starvation and economic hardship people experienced.
It’s time you woke up and lived up to your responsibilities. This is because you’re running out of time and don’t have time to waste.
