The Principal of Government Day Secondary School, Saminaka, in Rijau Local Government Area of Niger State, Mr. Ndatsu Yahaya, has been demoted over alleged extortion of his students.
However, after collecting the fees from the students, Yahaya was reported to have failed to remit the money collected to the West African Examination Council , which resulted in the not less than 50 students failing to take their certificate examinations. Members of the institution’s PTA had appealed to the ministry to intervene in the matter because the money collected was not remitted to WAEC for the examination.
The group, however, said that the people from the Kwara-north have competent, technocrats and well-articulated personalities that could add values to the socio economic and political development of the country. “Sadly, Kwara-north has nothing to show when compared with the other two senatorial districts for all its sacrifices, selflessness and loyalty to APC not just as a party, but also for the growth, progress, development and peaceful co-existence of Kwara State.
“This is in contrast to the other two senatorial districts; central and south respectively. While the central supplied the highest votes of about 39 per cent in 2019, south provided the least of around 29 per cent. Notwithstanding these figures, the two districts got handsomely rewarded with ministerial appointments vis-viz of Mr. Lai Mohammed and Senator Gbemisola Ruqayyat Saraki respectively.
