Zamfara: Gov Dauda Lawal Make Use Of State’s Liaison Office Complex Constructed By Matawalle Administration in Kaduna
A few months after Zamfara Governor Dauda Lawal Dare, accused his predecessor and now minister of state for defence, Alhaji Bello Matawalle, of not putting a single project worth N200m outside the state capital, the governor was last week sighted at the liason office complex along with the state officials performing official functions.
This liason office complex has saved the state government huge sums of money that would have spent on hotels for accommodation and the functions.
A source amongst the entourage told our reporter that “even the Gov himself who claims to be rich was sleeping in the liaison complex for the whole week they spent in Kaduna.”
Our source said that “upon arrival, the governor expressed his admiration for the newly built complex housing several rooms and the governor’s lodge wing.”
He also said Gov Lawal has given out orders to those managing the liason office complex to ensure that the first family of the state takes up permanent residence there.
The liason office in Kaduna is among the projects of the former governor Bello Matawalle, who he is being widely criticized for by Dr Dauda Lawal, alleging misappropriation of state funds.
In addition to helping to clean the area that Dauda converted into his official residence, an eyewitness who worked in the Zamfara State liaison office reported that “due to the modern infrastructures governor Dauda Lawal saw in the lodge, he even hosted NSDC Vans to Kaduna State Command for a grand ceremonial parade of joy for the memory and hard work of the former governor Bello Mohammed Matawalle who met the place bushy with snakes and converted it to the Mini Aso Villa.”
An official of the state giver embrace said “Dauda should apologize to former governor Bello Mohammed Matawalle administration for always castigating him. This project is commendable amd it’s a befitting structure for the state government in Kaduna state”.
We should not allow politics to take better part of us, we should give kudos to whoever deserves it, this is commendable, I must say! “
