Senator Bomai
By Abubakar Madu Bukar
It is most condemnable the singling out of Senator Bomai’s house for attack in Potiskum during the recent nationwide protests on the 1st of August 2024.
The protesters did not earmark or conceived as part of their plan to attack the residence of Senator Bomai as the routes followed by them were far away from his residence.
But some persons whom we have now identified who are not happy with the electoral successes of the Senator that comprise supporters of a former Senator, some elements in the APC who had worked against the party at the last general elections for his re-election as Senator and supporters of candidates of other parties who lost against Senator Bomai colluded and orchestrated the attack on his house.
It is glaring that the attack on the residence of Senator Bomai was driven by personal hatred because of the four houses of prominent politicians in his area it was only his own that was attacked.
It is incontestable that no elected representative of Yobe South has performed in terms of bringing development and economic empowerment to his people like Senator Bomai since the advent of the current democratic dispensation in 1999.
One can comfortably say that what Senator Bomai did to his people of Yobe South in his first tenure has surpassed the combined work of all other legislators of the Zone since 1999. This is also a man with a large heart who has shown sympathy for the suffering of the common man long before joining politics through his legendary distribution of food and other individual assistance to his people that are mostly unannounced because of his rare humility and humbleness.
It is most unfortunate that his political opponents who are jealous of his electoral successes and afraid of his rising political career instigated misguided, uninformed and ignorant elements to write a petition to INEC for his recall after failing to pull him down at the last primary and general elections masquerading under the guise of the on gong protests.
Senator Bomai cannot be discouraged and neither will he be distracted by the sinister activities of his political detractors both within and outside the APC to bring him down in his firm resolve and absolute commitment to further bring more dividends of democracy to the good people of Yobe South.
We the patriotic people of Yobe South are proud of getting Senator Bomai and we shall continue to support him as a progressive, exemplary politician and a man of vision in his mission of bringing and continuing with the massive socio economic infrastructure in Yobe South that has never been witnessed before.
