Political hangers on of doubtful character have over the years infiltrated Adamawa state and are hell bent on pulling the system down if their rogue principals are not imposed on the people of the state.
Of recent an article by a very dubious publication called “The Finder” was all over social media and other equally dubious means, trying to damage the image of the Adamawa state government. Unwittingly, the man behind the charade is one John Idoko, a man of no substance, a none indigene and none resident of Adamawa state that has fed fat on the state as a lap dog of the Bindow administration.
He along side a well-known traitor served under Nyako, whom he betrayed and later hoodwinked Bindow into staying in his kitchen cabinet, have embarked on a project meant to create disaffection in the state by spinning a web of lies by circulating an article saying that Ahmadu Fintiri lied on over three thousand instances.
It is interesting to note that even the devil has no time to start counting and even be specific that three thousand one hundred and fifty-nine times an individual uttered false statements. Only a malicious mind with nothing to do will take so much time to monitor and count such.
Anyway the “digital” hangers on known for lying and doing nothing good have time enough to create lies and spin stories to create a false image for the man that dusted them in an election they rigged but failed to meet the number of votes validly cast. The rigging did not yield their desired results; hence the resort to lies which cannot get their principal into power.
John Idoko is not from Adamawa state and is not therefore in good stead to make such spurious allegations. It cannot even be fathomed that an outsider could take the pains of counting how many times a State Governor lied.
If the charlatan wants us to believe him, he should tell us how many times his state governor lied and how many times he told the truth. In his home state the people will be interested in such, but not in Adamawa where the people can see what is done and what has not been done due to the changing tide of events.
John Idoko and his cohorts, for he so claims, he is not alone, began to monitor and track all statements uttered by Governor Fintiri, an act unprecedented in history anywhere in the world. This bogus, “digital” lying started as he claims when they decided to cover the first one hundred days in office of governor Fintiri.
It is of interest to know why “The Finder”, an unknown publication in Adamawa state should embark on such a task. It is also interesting to know who the people that tasked “them” with the duty of counting the number of “misstatements” are. Evidently a warped and corrupted mind is at work for the bigger “digital” liar that raped the economy of the state and created this class of hanger- on beggars that dream of a comeback of the boss and subsequent looting of Adamawa state.
Mr John Idoko your dream of such will never come true. Your collaborators know this as a fact and should be warned that when push goes to shove, their masks will be uncovered and the masquerading charlatans be put to shame in the market place.
They have had enough fun fooling three governors. This time around, they should save what they have pilfered over a period of twelve years. And for you Mr Idoko, mind the business of Benue state where your name seems to point to and leave the issue of Adamawa State on which you have had your share of the loot under Bindow.
Mr Idoko claims to keep count of falsehood by the governor including times such statement were made, it is disheartening to note that he has nothing else to do but committing himself to counting falsehoods of one individual. This is an indication of the morbid hatred Mr Idoko has for the governor and a clear indicator to the fact that he has lost the juicy bones he used to have under the ex-governor’s table.
“The finder” lied that the governor said he will solve the problems of the state immediately. Immediately, dear Idoko, does not mean in one fell swoop. No man can make such a claim. Immediately, here, infers an unhesitant move to address the issues at hand.
On the Shila boys issue, it is a well-known fact that the boys are the product of the last regime that used them as thugs. They were well known, that is why Fintiri went after them. Several were arrested and later released due to people from the previous regime's interference. It is not surprising that at this point in time that the Shilla boys are on the move, Idoko is raising the issue probably because he is in the know.
Apart from the Shila boys problems, John Idoko claimed that Governor Ahmadu Umaru Fintiri has not paid the backlog of promotions' remunerations. It is of interest that he did not take time to assess how long Fintiri has been in power or even take cognizance of the fact that the backlog of unpaid promotions claims date back to over eight years ago. Is it that he expects Fintiri to pay all the backlog in one year? Clearly Mr John Idoko is out to create disaffection between the governor and pensioners.
While Bindow and Nyako were in power, Idoko did not think it normal to tell them of the plight of pensioners, but has now decided to do so. In fact, pensioners in Adamawa know that the recent verification is preparing grounds for payments. Currently those that did not collect their pensions and have lodged complaints have started receiving their pensions. That does not mean all have received theirs, but at the rate things are going on, they know that their case will be solved.
For your information, John Idoko Governor Ahmadu Umaru Fintiri is not preoccupied by the 2023 elections, he is rather disturbed by the lingering problem of how Adamawa State fares at the moment and later years. His political goals are geared towards uplifting the standard of living of the people and not electioneering in 2023, a goal set by power hungry political hangers-on.
His government is geared towards helping the down trodden and resuscitating the battered economy that was left by the previous administration. The debt profile is a reality that is being addressed. Boni Haruna’s input in Adamawa State can be seen today in the projects (modern market, Adamawa Plaza) project that yield profit for the state. Idoko’s principal has nothing to show as such.
Fintiri has kept his promise of feeding students, even if Idoko thinks otherwise. There are no complaints from parents and principals that the allotted money has not been remitted.
The COVID-19 pandemic is real and the government cannot pretend that it does not exist nor wish it away. “The Finder” is on a wild goose hunt and therefore looking for lame excuses by giving the dog a bad name so as to hang it. However, these lies will not pass discerning Adamawa citizens that know what is at hand.
A lot of things claimed by Idoko defy descriptions. In the first place, he has not been able to establish some of the things he claimed to had been said by Fintiri. This places a lot of doubt on the credibility of all his claims. His lies will be exposed over time, just as his sponsors will be put to shame. The truth in every matter cannot be hidden forever “gaskiya dokin karfe. Ba a hawanta a zauna” (truth is an iron horse that you can’t sit on comfortably).
Mr Idoko, your “fact checker” is a crass bunch of lies. If not so, please check your principal’s bunch of lies while you (meaning, you and the mentors whose boots you lick) were in power. Stop feeding crap to the people of Adamawa. Your “fact checker” will best serve the people of your state.
Your lies are enough. If you try to deny the fact that you are a liar , you will be further exposed and even taken to court to get you punished for spreading falsehood that can cause social disorder.
The FINDER NEWS which is a publication with no official base is reputed for a certain pattern of notoriety in invading people's privacy by way of spreading fake news through the use of bulk SMS.
The FINDER collects People's phone numbers and keep sending links of fake stories forcing people to read their villifying slanderous writings. Adamawa people are fed up with this kind of intrusion on their privacy.
It is high time security agents, network providers and the general public get on the trail of such dubious persons such as the publisher of the the Finder News who has no record with the Nigerian Union of Journalists(NUJ).
