I spend at least 3 days in a month in Yobe – Gov. Buni replies critics

Governor Mai Mala Buni of Yobe State has replied critics who accused him of being largely absent from the state since he took over as the caretaker chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC).

There were reports that files and matters relating to the state were put on hold as the governor was occupied with matters that concern the APC.

However, the Governor in an interview with BBC, said he has been discharging his duties effectively while absent from his state.

According to him, he spends three days a month in the state.

Buni said; “On the issue of staying in the state, there is no way I can spend a month without spending three or four days in Yobe State.

“And then, even if I return to Yobe, I cannot advertise or make it public that today I will be in Yobe and tomorrow I will be leaving. ”

The Governor also denied allegations that he left files unattended to and focused on party politics.

“I won’t be revealing to the public when I come to Yobe or when I am leaving.

“And at this age of technology, why will anybody say that there were a bunch of files waiting for me? Even before I came here I don’t know the numbers (of files I treated).”
