The Yoruba Youth Council (YYC) has called on the Zamfara State House of Assembly to impeach Governor Dauda Lawal over his alleged shoddy handling of the deteriorating security situation in their troubled state.
This is even as the youth council cautioned the governor to stop attacking the minister of state for Defence and his predecessor, Alhaji Bello Matawalle.
The ethnic group also lamented the alleged refusal by the governor to work in harmony with the minister in the ongoing sweeping efforts by the military to crush the escalating banditry and the worrisome insecurity ravaging the state.
The YYC in a statement issued by its president, Comrade Eric Oluwole, said, “It is appalling and unacceptable that rather than cooperate with the Ministry of Defence and the Armed Forces of the Federal Republic of Nigeria in crushing the worsening banditry in his state, he is the one fuelling the bandits in their bloody attacks which have claimed many lives because his is not a listening Governor.”
Oluwole said, “Regrettably still, the Yoruba Youths Council recently monitored Governor Lawal’s interview on a TV station calling for the resignation of Alhaji Bello Matawalle, the Minister of State for Defence.
“We boldly say that viewing the current situation in Zamfara, Mr Governor could not have accused his predecessor of not doing enough. This is because Alhaji Bello Matawalle has tried his best to work with him, but Governor Dauda Lawal has refused his intervention.
