WHY IT HAS TO BE KETSO IN 2023 BY HABIBU WUSHISHI...
However, we have partly remained underdeveloped because of our choice of leadership in the state over the years. We have refused to consider electing people with political and administrative experience to govern us.
Surprisingly, we have had briliant set of Deputy Governors who had done their jobs with all honesty and sincerity of purpose but we drop them when it comes to electing new Governor. Politically new Governors takes two years or more studying the state and the needs of the people and before you know it, their tenures are over.
So as it is, Governors after Governors come and go leaving behind policies and programmes with the audacity of translating the state economy into rapid development but alas, what you see are abandoned projects from one administration to the other due to selfishness or the urge to seek cheap popularity amongst the people.
What most electorates do not understand is that a Deputy Governor like Ahmed Mohammed Ketso who is nicknamed "MR FIX" it by his boss because he has successfully managed NLC strikes, communal clashes, party misunderstandings, kidnapping/banditry issues, gridlocks, Students unions problems, Bridge collapse, Military-Civilian crisis and Chaired many committees/parastatals and has traveled and is traveling to all the local government areas of Niger state on official or individual level can do very well if given the mandate of being a Governor.
Experience is a great teacher! Let's think deeply and do the right thing before we make the mistakes of the past only to start regretting later.
A stitch in time saves nine!.
