Southern Kaduna youths under the auspices of the Southern Kaduna Youth Liberation Movement have asked the Taraba State House of Assembly to set up a medical team to access the state of health of the state governor, Danbaba Suntai, arguing that only a duly constituted medical team can declare the governor “medically unfit” to carry out his constitutional responsibility of governing the state.
In a statement signed by the President and Secretary of the group, Charles Bijimi and David Jonathan respectively, the group said what is going on presently in Taraba State is purely immoral politics of power mongering.
They said, “That there is political crisis in Taraba State is not in doubt. What is the cause of the crisis? There is a callous campaign being waged, with claims that Governor Danbaba Suntai of Taraba State should still remain in hospital in the United States, and should not return to Nigeria to resume his office as Governor of the state.
“There are deliberate efforts to mislead Nigerians to believe that Governor Danbaba Danfulani Suntai is medically not fit to discharge his functions as Governor of Taraba State. Members of the Taraba State House of Assembly have not constituted a medical board to examine governor Suntai, yet they stand before the press to gratuitously declare him medically unfit.
“This is purely immoral politics of power mongering. Everyone seems to forget that Mr. Suntai won the Governorship election in 2011, and that Alhaji Garba Umar, the Deputy Governor was not even his running mate.”
The youths are also accusing Vice President Mohammed Namadi Sambo of fueling the political crisis in Taraba State, alleging that there was a grand design to sow the seed of religious politics in the state.
Thank you Kaduna Youths, I love you all and am so proud of you.
I tink the committee set up by pdp know what they are doing better. So youths of southern Kaduna give them a break ok!
Yes! That should be the right process than this press propaganda against his mental alertness.
