A PDP governorship aspirant in Kaduna State, Sen. Suleiman Hunkuyi has vowed to reinstate all workers who he said were unconstitutionally sacked by the El- Rufa’i led Administration.
“Every District Head that was sacked by El-rufai will be returned to office in my first week in office.”
The gubernatorial hopeful made the declaration on Friday at a consultative meeting with PDP hierarchy, stakeholders and interest groups in Southern Kaduna.
Senator Hunkuyi lamented that the ordinary citizens in Kaduna State have no other adversary than the Governor.
He urged the people of the state, especially opinion and religious leaders, sacked workers and parents whose children are suffering the ill-informed policies of the Administration, particularly in the educational sub-sector to see the consensus to vote out the Governor.
Hunkuyi lamented the poor state of infrastructures in the state and the staggering debt accrued over the period of 3 years as a result of non-payment of pension to pensioners and entitlements of sacked workers.
“El-rufai has destroyed Kaduna state through unwarranted liabilities, which have piled up over the period of 3 years due to non-payment of pension and entitlements of sacked workers, which is totalling up to N34bn,” he lamented.
If given the mandate, Hunkuyi assured that he would engage Southern Kaduna leaders to come forward with the region’s priorities that will help improve the prosperity of the region.
“No region in Kaduna State, under the current government that is side-lined, mistreated and psychologically injured like Southern Kaduna.
“However, it is disaster to just wish to remove El-rufai without thinking of a good and better replacement. After the PDP primaries, if I eventually picked the party’s ticket, El-rufai will know that he is defeated already.”
He called on Southern Kaduna people to be pragmatic because the region is strategically placed, adding that it would determine who wins the 2019 gubernatorial election.
