Purported rigging Memo didn’t emanate from me — Zamfara Dep Chief of Staff

The Deputy Chief of Staff to Governor Bello Muhammad Matawalle of Zamfara state, Dr Bashir M Maru has described the memo circulating in which he was alleged to have written to the governor detailing plans to rig forth coming State Assembly by- election in Bakura constituency as fake and handiwork of mischief makers.

In a statement forwarded to our correspondent by the Special Adviser to Governor Bello Muhammad Matawalle on Public Enlightenment, Media and Communication Malam Zailani Bappa Dr Bashir M Maru said the letter is entirely fake and meant to pitch the INEC against Zamfara state government.

“My attention has been drawn to a memo purportedly issued by the Office of the Chief of Staff to the Executive Governor of Zamfara State signed by me detailing plans to rig the forthcoming State House of Assembly bye elect for Bakura State Constituency in favour of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP)”

“For the records it should be made clear that no semblance of such memo or communication in any form related to the content of the said memo emanated from the Office of the Chief of Staff to the Executive Governor of Zamfara State or that of the Deputy Chief of Staff”

“The intention of the publishers have therefore been made baldly clear to wit a desperate attempt to blackmail the Zamfara State Government, whip the Peoples Democratic Party into submission and gain the sympathy of President Muhammadu Buhari to tilt Federal might in favour of the All Progressives Congress’s Candidate”

Meanwhile Zamfara state government has urged the security operatives to fish out those behind the fake Memo adding that anything less would open a floodgate of blackmail against responsible individuals and organisations in the body Polity.
