Social Media Wars: Nigerians React As Kadaria Labels Yari Most Useless Governor
A storm of reactions by Nigerians has greeted a statement by a veteran broadcast journalist and writer, Kadaria Ahmed, that the governor of Zamfara State, northern Nigeria, Abdulaziz Yari is the most useless governor in the history of Nigeria.
Baba News had reported earlier that Ahmed made this comment while addressing journalists in Abuja, Nigeria’s capital, during a protest against the ineffectiveness of both Zamfara State government and the Federal Government on the incessant killings in the state.
When asked what she thought of the efforts of the state government in addressing the issue, Ahmed said: “As far as I am concerned, that Governor is the most useless governor in the history of Nigeria.
“Quote me: he is the most useless governor in the history of Nigeria. This is a governor whose reaction to the killings in his state was to resign as the Chief Security Officer. He went on the record to say that he cannot be the Chief Security Officer. So, I don’t know what he is still doing in office; he doesn’t care.
“He only cares about the people of Zamfara when it comes to politics. The fact that they are getting killed does not concern him. He lives most of his time here in Abuja. How can you govern a state for eight years from Abuja? What sort of leadership is that? We are so happy he is on his way out.
“He is hopeless as a leader. He has not done well for our people. Under him, Zamfara has deteriorated.”Ahmed said she grew up in Zamfara State, stating that the state has lost the peace and prosperity she used to know.
The veteran journalist called on Nigeria’s President Muhammadu Buhari to declare a state of emergency in the state.
“We are calling in President Muhammadu Buhari to show the people of Zamfara the same regards they have shown him. For two elections, they have come out in large numbers to vote for him. Can he also show that he cares about them?” Ahmed asked.
Moments after she made the statement, Nigerians took to the micro-blogging site, Twitter to react to the statement.
Babanewsline captured some of the reactions below…
The same people who were "fighting" to defend a shamelessly corrupt CJN in the name "rule of law" are the same ones lynching Kadaria. The common denominator is easy to see, they hate Buhari & manufacture outrage, lash at anything/anyone to justify it. It is so funny to see.— Babanla (@biolakazeem) April 7, 2019
Is this not Kadaria that questioned Atiku on issues for the APC? Why did she no ask Buhari questions over the banditry during 'the candidates' on NTA? Madam, it was clear you worked for the APC during the chart, it good anyway to protest. Continue https://t.co/q7iKTmzLFZ— Atikulated Maigogul (@Maigogul) April 7, 2019
Kadaria was right about Yari, but he cannot beat GANDUJE on the stupid list! The irresponsible governor is breeding/equipping thugs/gangsters in his own state openly and then picking a fight with the Police commissioner for arresting the same thugs. You tell me!— DG (@Sir_KB) April 7, 2019
I think it was @jeffphilips1 that predicted how they will give you a break and focus on @KadariaAhmed for the next four years after that her explosive Interview with Atiku/Obi.— Abu Rayyan (@Abdulrahmanleme) April 7, 2019
They are so predictable. https://t.co/QdjOVUMq7V

Maybe thing will switch for the better after handover... Who knows— Omole, Esq. (@Eomole01) April 7, 2019
Kadaria in her protest pointed out the insecurity issues that has been going on for years in zamfara .. This is coming from a person who had the opportunity to ask these questions few months ago from the president!.. https://t.co/VOFWJHQjcm— .... (@i_am_oludare1) April 7, 2019
Another school of thought here.— Jacob Attah (@Attah04) April 7, 2019
The reason Kadaria is being called out is she was practically the only person for more than 2years who had the opportunity to ask salient questions on the killings before the elections.
As the media didn't have access to Mr. President, https://t.co/MEiF07IM6k
I said it after that Kadaria’s interview with Atiku and Obi that these perpetual irresponsible idiots are going to replace Omojuwa with her in their endless idiocy for the next 4yrs.— SoulJah (@jeffphilips1) April 7, 2019
If OPEC replaces oil with idiocy, these Atiku and PDP supporters will make Nig topple Saudi A

It is not just about Buhari, they hate @KadariaAhmed and also hate the fact that the issue she and others are calling attention is gaining traction. They do not care for any of these problems, just crazy people with smart phones. https://t.co/IsZ9FrVFOr— JJ. Omojuwa (@Omojuwa) April 7, 2019
I still remember Kadaria's tweet about Wike and Ortom shaking after one of the incidents of killing in Benue.— Poximus Prime (@tonypox) April 7, 2019
If Kadaria had a 10 minute interview where she was cursing Buhari all through, the same things would tweet “they have delayed this one’s salary.” I know these folks. You can’t win with them. It’s not about any issues, it is about the bile and hatred in them. https://t.co/iZXSywanwG— JJ. Omojuwa (@Omojuwa) April 7, 2019
2019 elections in Zamfara...— SoulJah (@jeffphilips1) April 6, 2019
Buhari 438,682
Atiku 125,423
For those guilt tripping Zamfarans, saying they're fit to die bcos they voted Buhari against Atiku, what about if those being killed are part of the whopping 125,423?
Did you people acquire any form of education at all?
How and where did she exonerate him?— Babanla (@biolakazeem) April 7, 2019
Madam, we begged you, we dragged you, we implored you, we even sang your praises to please help us ask Buhari the hard questions on his record, but what did you do? You gave him sweetheart questions. Now you want me to do aluta with you? Tufiakwa!!! My Baba is doing very well.— Mazi Chima Amadi Ph.D (@AMADICHIMA) April 7, 2019
What is the name of this Aunty that is lamenting in this video? Somebody should help me tell her that we will not tolerate any distraction in this Next Level regime. She should go and rest. Buhari is the best thing that has happened to Nigeria. 😂pic.twitter.com/fd0hKCoX8V— Oluyemi Fasipe🇳🇬 (@YemieFASH) April 6, 2019
