Kabir Marafa, a former senator representing Zamfara central,
says President Bola Tinubu will change the “reward system in government”.
Marafa spoke on Tuesday night in Abuja at a meeting with
members of the Zamfara chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC)
presidential campaign council.
The former senator said he had been asked by the president
to thank the residents of Zamfara for voting him, adding that the era of
“monkey working and baboon reaping the benefit” is over.
“When the issues of the inauguration came up, I had reasons
to complain,” the Zamfara coordinator for the campaign council said.
“And I said we were
appointed to pioneer these campaign activities in our various states – and it
is time for inauguration and he didn’t extend any invitation to us?
“Mr President said ‘Marafa, call them, thank them for me,
let us hit the ground running and do what we are supposed to do’.
“Mr President said he is still on his promise to change the
reward system of the government and I’m sure he is going to do it. Mr President
appreciates what Zamfara did [during elections].
“I was sleeping in my
village house when someone came and woke me up, he said ‘you are here sleeping
when Mr President is mentioning your name in Abuja’. I told that person that
this is one of the reasons we requested you to vote for this man because this
man is full of gratitude.
“I was not even before him but he remembered that the people
of Zamfara contributed to his success. So I want to assure you the president
has Zamfara in his mind, he is the president of the country, not Zamfara
alone.”
The former senator said APC lost Zamfara to the Peoples
Democratic Party (PDP) because some “hypocrites” worked against the party.
