The councillor representing Bajoga East Ward under the Funakaye Local Government Area of Gombe State, Yusuf Yahaya, defends his recent appointment of 18 aides in this interview withI am Honourable Yusuf Yahaya, also known as Agali. I am the councillor representing Bajoga East Ward under the Funakaye Local Government Area of Gombe State. I am also the Chairman of Councillors’ Forum, Gombe State. I’m married to two wives with nine children – five males and four females.

I was appointed as a Special Adviser to the Gombe State Governor between 2011 and 2015 during the first term of former governor Ibrahim Dankwambo. In 2015, when he came in for second term, I was reappointed. But as an adviser to the governor there were so many things I considered wrong and when I advised the governor he would not agree to change. That was why I changed my party from the Peoples Democratic Party to the All Progressives Congress.

I did that to make my work easier, aside from the fact that it was a way of creating jobs for my people. The appointments were geared towards spreading my reach to my constituents knowing full well that I can’t always be there.

How much is the Councillor's salary and allowances?

Just ordinary councilor.... how will this country be better?

As long as you get to pay them from your pocket, it's all good. Go ahead and create employment.

My application is rightly on the way, Mr Councilor 🙏

With face like power bank why not use the whole state as aide

Misplacement of priority. How much are you paid for been a councilor? Since you want to gather all community members to be your advisers. That's how you end up squandering state resources without tangible development.

Animal in power….
