The governorship candidate of the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Borno State, Alhaji Mohammed Jajari, has criticised the Borno State government under Governor Babagana Umara Zulum of constructing mega schools across the state without qualified teachers to man the schools.

He also accused the State government of using direct labour to build roads that get dilapidated in months just for the enrichment of Zulum’s cronies and family members.

Jajari said, “The All Progressives Congress government in Borno State is building schools without teachers, building schools amid retrenchment of teachers. Some of us grew up in Maiduguri, in some of our schools we sat under the trees, but then we had teachers. “You build roads that become dilapidated after some months because you are just trying to make money. This is not what our people need. People don’t get access to quality education, quality healthcare. Three of our borders are closed and thus impoverishing the business community and crippling the State economy,” the PDP candidate said.

He added that the PDP was ripe to take over power not only in the State but at the federal level, stressing that the unpopular policies of the APC in Borno will make the electorate massively vote for the PDP despite incumbency factor of the ruling party.
