Deyemi Saka, a communication consultant with Lambert and Curtis Nigeria Limited, on behalf of Bello Muhammed Matawalle, executive governor of Zamfara State has said that a certificate forgery case against him, is an act of distraction. He described it as the handiwork of detractors and opposition not pleased with the achievements being recorded by the state. Saka said anybody doubting the credibility of the governor’s result can approach the examination board for confirmation or take legal action.
The alleged certificate forgery hovering around the governor of Zamfara state, Bello Mohammed Matawalle is alarming, and the facts are damning. It is beyond hyperbole to say the least, for facts don't lie. The emerging facts from the Zamfara State Chief Executive's certificate puzzle reminded me of John Adams' postulation on facts. He opined that "facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our inclinations, or the dictates of our passion, they cannot alter the state of facts and evidence."
