Minister of State for Defence, Dr. Bello Mohammed Matawalle has challenged appointees of the government from the North to support and work for the success of the administration.

He stated this in reaction to his statement on attacks on the government by the Northern Elders forum.

Matawalle in a press release personally signed by himself said that a former spokesman of the Northern Elders Forum (NEF), Dr. Hakeem Baba-Ahmed, who is now a Special Adviser on Political Matters in the Presidency should protect and defend the government against unjust and vicious attacks.

He said “The fact now is that he is an appointee of the administration as Special Adviser and it is incumbent on him to work for the success of the government he is part of, protect and defend the government against unjust and vicious attacks from those who hide under ethnic and other primordial interests to heat up the polity for myopic reasons

“It is pertinent to state that every appointee of President Tinubu including Dr. Baba-Ahmed owe the government a copious duty to promote, elucidate and advance the good works and commendable efforts of the government across all sectors.

“As appointees of the government from the North, we must all take a stand, be unequivocal and be counted in the roll of honours for our support and work for the success of the administration we are serving.

“This is not the time to keep quiet in the face of intimidation and misrepresentation of the efforts and achievements of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu GCFR . We must stand up to be counted for being on the part of government or take our exit,” he added.
