The Taraba State chairman of the All Progressive Congress (APC), Alhaji Hassan Ardo, has called on governor Darius Ishaku to resign if he knows he cannot address the problems of the state.
Ardo, who stated this yesterday in Jalingo while answering questions from journalists said the government of governor Ishaku lacks focus.
He added that since the governor assumed office, over 12, 000 Taraba workers have been languishing in abject poverty.
He added that all the policies and programme of the present administration has no direct bearing to the people of the state and stressed that the decision of the state house of assembly to reduce the tenureship of local government chairmen from three years to two years was not what would solve the problems of the state rather would add to more problems.
“If want to solve the problem of the state, let him pay teachers, local government workers and as well address the problems of pensions”he said.
The APC state chairman who condemned the action of the lawmakers as counter productive, explained that the two years was not sufficient for any elected local government to chairman to record any appreciable achievements.
He stated that the decision of governor Ishaku to influence Taraba lawmakers to reduce the three years tenure of LGAs chairman was not only selfish, but against the tenant of genuine democracy in the state.
