The former executive secretary of Lakpam development area and a stalwart of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Shiroro local government area of Niger State, Hon. Shehu Dabo has said that Governor Muazu Babangida Aliyu would be the best candidate to represent Niger East senatorial district in 2015.
Dabo who stated this in an interview yesterday with journalists noted that Governor Aliyu by his achievements in the state would be the best candidate to represent Niger East senatorial district and not those who would just go to the Senate and remain docile.
According to him the governor is better experienced than the incumbent Senator Shem Zagbai in the politics of the country because he was a former federal permanent secretary.
“The governor’s experience as a governor and a former permanent secretary in the federal civil service far outweighs that of Senator Zagbai who got elected on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the recent by-election in Niger East senatorial district to replace late Senator Dahiru Awaisu Kuta,” he declared.
He explained that Zagbayi was only elected to replace and complete the tenure of late Senator Kuta which had nothing to do with 2015 general elections.
“I am an indigene of Shiroro local government and I reside in Erena. I know how terrible it has been with us while crossing the River Kaduna. For over three decades after the construction of the Shiroro Dam it has been very terrible for Lakpam people to cross the river, in fact many villagers have died trying to cross the river.”
