By Andrew Ojih, Jalingo.
The Senior Special Assistant to governor Darius Ishaku, Hon Usman Sa’adu Sambo was shocked with the press statement issued this morning in Jalingo by the Senior Special Adviser on Media and Publicity to Governor Darius Ishaku, Mr. Bala Dan Abu that he was sacked from office.
Sambo, who spoke to Journalists while reacting to the press statement said he personally wrote to governor Darius Ishaku on the 31/12/2021 that he was no longer interested in working with him as his SSA.
“On the 31/12/2021, I wrote a letter of resignation to the Governor through the Secretary to the State Government, Hon Anthony Jallason.
“While waiting for his response, today the 5th/01/2022, I received a call that I was sack” he lamented.
He noted that after submitting the letter of resignation he proceeded to his ward in Sintali ward and informed his ward Chairman that he was quitting the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) for his former party, the All Progressive Congress (APC).
He stressed that he joined the PDP in Taraba because of late Sen. Aisha Jummai Alhassan who was in 2015 victimized by the party at the national level.
“As you can see, there was no single reason given out for sacking me, I worked with governor Ishaku whole heartedly and I choose to return to my former party, the Apc without any issues” he said.
He called on Tarabans and his teaming supporters to disregard the press statement.
“They just want to spoil my political career that I have built for years.
And I must make the point clear that I wrote and informed the governor through his SSG that I was leaving his government” he clarified.
