He might be a former Naval Chief and brilliant military strategist but Governor Murtala Nyako of Adamawa State may be fighting the battle of his life presently as the Federal Government has frozen all bank accounts being operated by the state government. This is even as he is facing impeachment by the state House of Assembly, purportedly acting out a script written by the presidency.
According to a report by Daily Trust on Friday, the Director of Press and Public Affairs in Adamawa Government House, Ahmad Sajoh confirmed the development, which he said has exposed the desperate efforts by President Goodluck Jonathan to witch hunt officials he perceived as enemies even if it means subjecting the electorate to hardship.
Sajoh added that the closure of the bank accounts would have adverse effect on workers as the state government may not be able to pay salaries even as social services might be grounded especially during the holy month of Ramadan.
