Adamawa state governor, Murtala Nyako, said on Saturday 12 July that
he had forgiven all those planning to impeach him from office.
Nyako said this while addressing his supporters who paid him a solidarity visit at his residence in Yola.
The
governor appealed to his supporters and all well-meaning citizens of
the state to remain calm and pray to God to protect them from falling
along ethnic and religious lines.
He described those behind his planned impeachment as the enemy of peace and the people of the state.
Nyako said that legitimate sons and daughters of the state would never cause hardship on their brothers and sisters.
“Despite
the unwarranted state of emergency enforced on the people of the state
coupled with the dust-to-down-curfew, some irresponsible elements based
in Abuja are trying to create additional hardship for the people,” he
said.
According to him, the impeachment saga is a deliberate plan
to cause disaffection among good people of the state, adding that his
administration would continue to deliver the dividends of democracy to
the people of the state irrespective of area, tribe and religion.
“I will continue to keep faith with my people and nothing will deter me from identifying with them,” Nyako said.
In
her remarks, the Adamawa Women Leader, Hajiya Hauwa Abba, stated that
women and youths in the state were in the Governor’s residence to
register their support and solidarity to him.
She disclosed that over 10,000 women and youths benefited from Nyako’s economic empowerment programmes in the state.
“Before the advent of Gov. Nyako’s administration, women in the state used to labour in some people’s farms to survive.
“But today, Nyako has economically empowered us to be self-reliant.”
She
appealed to those behind the impeachment to see reason and stop the
process in the interest of peace and development of the state.
