From Samaila Bayo, Birnin Kebbi

The concern citizens of Kebbi State have slammed the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP over it's outbursts against Governor Nasir Idris saying the party is delusioned on the various achievements recorded by the APC led administration within 10 months in power.

KCC in a statement made available to the press said the PDP sponsored write up against the governor was to mislead the people of Kebbi State under the pretence of expressing it's concern as opposition party.

It said the allegations that the governor was restricting peoples freedom of expression, refused to address issues bothering on the state's development and excluding other parties from the distribution of palliatives were figment of the imagination of the PDP as the party is swimming in the pool of its ignorance.

"The Governor will definitely not sit down to watch citizens publishing vulgar and defamatory statements likely to endanger public peace all in the guise of freedom of expression.

"It is part of the governor's function to prevent any breach of public peace by taking proactive measures which obviously includes issuance of warning to anyone making such attempts.

"If it were other governor he would have ordered for the arrest of the offending party".

It added that if the cleric offends the principle of legality that's likely to cause breach of public peace the governor would not fold his arms and watch.

The statement said Governor Idris have been busy to ensure smooth completion of the Birnin Kebbi township roads 

"And where was the writer when the governor extended the teachers retirement age and introduce additional funds to pay them with a view to revive education in the state.

"Where was the writer when the governor extended his hands of fellowship to the PDP and they rejected it.

"Where was the writer when the Governor supported the clerics and urged them to pray for peace of the state', it said.
