Diversion Of Palliatives: Kumbotso LG Chair, Innocent

By Bashir Mohammed Kano

A Chieftain of All Progressives Congress(APC) in Kano, Alhaji Ado Yellow Has described the Chairman Kumbotso Local Government Council of Kano State, Alhaji Kabiru Ado Panshekara as a politician of high integrity, whose impeccable leadership credentials are worth cherishing.

Reacting to a recent allegation levelled against the Council Chairman by the Chairman, Kano State Public Complaints and Anti-Corruption Commission , Barrister Muhuyi Magaji Rimin Gado that the former had allegedly diverted palliatives meant for distribution to people of his Council, Yellow stated that Panshekara is one whose hands are clean and would never commit such a dubious act.

According to him, with the remarkable degree of compassion, magnanimity and pity known about the Council Chairman, even his people can attest to the fact that he is trust worthy and can never go to any length to deprive his people of such a laudable gesture at the time they are in dire need of help in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic currently permeating the country.

Citing the recent remark credited to the Chairman of the Covid-19 appeal fund in the media, Prof.Muhammad Yahuza Bello , alluding that he was not aware of such an alleged diversion, the APC Chieftain maintained that such a pronouncement has clearly proven his innocence stressing that no responsible leader in a position of authority as his could ever tread such a path of dishonesty and sheer wickedness.

He called on politicians to comprehend the simple logic that in partisan politics, a politician of high calibre is always prone to baseless mischief as a subtle way of tarnishing his image at a certain time stressing that there is no way a politician can rise to stardom without being taken to the cleaners.
