Re: Gombe Community Accuses Reps Member Usman Bello Kumo of Marginalisation -By Salim Yakubu Akko

I unexpectedly and sadly came across a piece published by Nigeria Newspapers Online of Sunday, January 13, 2021, where the reporters of the newspaper had an interview with one unpatriotic, ungrateful Idris Abubakar, where he ignorantly reported some fallacies on behalf of the Gona Emirate without her awareness; a plethora of naked lies against the chauvinist, caring and ingenious Akko’s representative, Hon. Usman Bello Kumo, a man whose dreams is to see the betterment of the Akko constituency, Gombe state and Nigeria at large.

However, it’s not a surprise having seen the fact that your political opponent can do whatever thing to tarnish your profile in the eyes of the public as part of building his/her own party for some selfish interests. Having said that, it’s out of doubt that the fallacies being told by the unscrupulous Abubakar can be said to be sponsored by the political rivals as a way of strengthening their dilapidated parties by paying the “pay me and I’ll change the truth” Abubakar. If not for this reason, a sane man could not have done that in view of the metallic small Abuja the tireless Hon. Usman Kumo has been struggling to build in his constituency over the years with equality.

The truth here is that, anyone who visits Gona Emirate between 2015 to date would certainly refutes how Gona emirate made some giant strides under the shadow of this noble representative. How Hon. Bello Kumo works is hardly found in this our selfish, marginalised world. In a straight forward words, he’s the Tafawa Balewa of the Akko constituency. Any truthful son of Gona had witnessed and has been witnessing the notable developments the emirate has so far been attaining and attained, ranging from the educational sector to the youth building; from the agricultural development and to the infrastructural development and so forth, under the guise of his leadership.

In the Abubakar’s report, he shamelessly stated that Hon. Bello Kumo gave out three cars, 15 motorcycles in Pindiga emirate and three cars, 10 motorcycles in Kumo emirate, whilst the Gona emirate got only one car without a single bike, which happened to be an absolute fallacy. He gave two cars to the district head of Taliyawa and Bula respectively. Also, he gave out 20 motorcycles to the Imams, Ladans and some Gona youths to hinge upon theirselves. Also, he did add a huge amount of money in addition to the given vehicles.

Some notable developments, in brevity, brought by the chauvinist Hon. Kumo worth to be mentioned are: he built a central mosque in Akko Amada, Jummu’at mosque in Tabra, Jummuat mosque in Garin Saki, Primary Health Care in Bomala, six classes in Akko Primary School, bought a market field in Kalshingi, contributed in Katam’s Jummuat mosque building, building of rooms in the Gona emirate, bought houses for some homeless, and gave Hajj seats as well and so forth. From the above developments engineered by this promising reps, Hon. Kumo, the truth can be discerned that it’s only ungrateful elements of the emirate that want to unearth their burning jealousy to ruin his political movement by telling lies against him on behalf of our esteemed emirate.

And lastly, on behalf of the entire Gona emirate, I am falsifying the shits claimed by our unpatriotic and ungrateful brother, Idris Abubakar, and also sending our slew of apologies to the member representing Akko constituency, Hon. Usman Bello Kumo, over what the “paid” Idris stated. We are by your side as always and are immensely grateful for what you’ve been doing toward the betterment of the Gona emirate. Till the sun stops rising, we’ll forever be appreciating your selfless leadership!
