Zamfara State governor, Dr. Bello Muhammad Matawalle, has disclosed his willingness to resign his exalted office if that will bring peace to the State.
The peace loving Governor, has made it known to anyone that cares to listen that he is not power-hungry and as such could sacrifice his position for peace to reign.
The Governor made this disclosure recently when he was asked if he is intimidated by President Muhammadu Buhari’s declaration of a ‘No-Fly Zone’ in his state.
He said; “I am not power-hungry. I have been having a sleepless night to protect the people of Zamfara State.”
“I am ready to accept any solution that will bring security to my state.”
“I am not intimidated. If I know that my resigning as a governor will make the people sleep with their two eyes closed, I can resign. I am ready to do what will bring security.”
For those who don’t know, the President had ordered a no-fly zone in Zamfara State. He had also banned illegal mining following issues of insecurity in the State.
Buhari issued the order during the Security Council meeting in Abuja recently.
