Governor of Kano state, Dr.
Abdullahi Ganduje; Prof. Ango Abdullahi, and Dr. Junaid Muhammed, on Monday
described former Information Minister, Jerry Gana as an ‘ingrate’.
They said this while reacting to
a statement credited to Gana, that the Middle Belt will not join Nigeria, if
the country eventually splits.
During their condolence visits to
the family of the late Dan Masanin Kano, Maitama Sule, they said Gana immensely
benefited from a united Nigeria.
Abdullahi stated that Gana’s
outburst, “shows how ungrateful he is, as nothing calls for such.”
Mohammed accused Gana of being
ignorant of Geography, adding that the ex-Minister could not locate the Middle
Belt on the map of Nigeria.
Kano State Governor, Abdullahi
Ganduje, said Nigeria could only succeed if all the component units were
united.
“The country can only be
meaningful if it is united. It is sad to note that a professor is saying that
the Middle Belt will not go with the North if the country breaks,” he said.
They added that his professorial
status has to be re-examined.
“It is sad to note that those, who have benefited from Nigeria’s unity are the same people now calling for its break-up,” they said.Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday

ReplyDeleteTruth is bitter. That Prof Jerry Gana is an erudite scholar is not in doubt. He is more qualified than those accusing him now. When it comes to objectivity Prof Ango is not the in a position to offer useful contributions as it relates to nation building. At best Mr Ango is ethnic and religious bigot.
