The Special Assistant on Media to Hon. Danladi Baido, the Social Democratic Party (SDP) governorship candidate in Taraba State, Anthony Maliki has described one Bayero Lawal has having coronavirus of the mouth that the SDP candidate is not competent to govern the state.
Lawal was Special Duties Adviser to former acting Governor, Alhaji Garba Umar UTC. He spoke to Taraba Truth and Facts newspaper.
Maliki in a statement on Tuesday noted that Lawal was speaking from two sides of his mouth and ignorant of the political happenings in Taraba State.
Besides, Hon. Baido’s media aide pointed out that from Lawal’s comments through his so-called Taraba Movement for Good Governance, monetary inducement might have exchanged hands with the PDP candidate, Lt-Col. Kefas, he claimed is the best candidate.
According to Maliki, Hon. Baido has never sought religion or ethnic togas to seek power but it is the PDP candidate, Lt-Col. Kefas that displayed such tendencies.
The media aide noted that Kefas bought over CAN in the state to endorse him as their purported preferred candidate thereby fanning religious divisions and hype the Jukun people to believe they are fighting an ethnic agenda against other parts of the state and must rule.
Maliki stressed that Kefas even stole the PDP mandate by using his position as the party’s chairman and twisted the governorship nomination in his favour and should never be trusted.
He said even the exist of Kefas from the Nigerian Army is shrewed in mystery as he has not reached the age of 60 years or 35 years of service cautioning Taraba voters to be wary of wolfs in sheep clothing.
The media aide explained that Hon. Baido has never campaigned on religion or ethnic platforms but on peaceful coexistence and justice.
He cautioned Lawal not to speak on what he doesn’t know about or he would be made to eat his words if some issues are made public on Kefas.
