ALIYU: I’M GOING ON FOUR YEARS SABBATICAL

Date:

Niger state Governor Dr. Mu’azu Babangida Aliyu, has revealed that he will be proceeding on a four-year sabbatical from politics at the end of his tenure as governor on May 29, adding that he will not be visible in the next four years
until 2019 “when I will come back in a big way.”
Aliyu, who lost the bid to clinch the Niger East Senatorial seat, made this known in Minna on Monday while commissioning some projects constructed for the newly established Niger state University of Education and the Niger state College of Education, both in Minna.
He however did not say in what role he will be coming back into the politics of the country in 2019 but he has been a serious advocate of a reorganization of the People’s Democratic Party, PDP, which suffered a serious defeat in the general elections held recently in the country.
Aliyu has also been very vocal in asking his colleagues who lost in the election not to allow their defeat to make them jump ship to the new party that will be at the helms of affairs in the country on May 29.
He spoke seriously against allowing the APC to turn Nigeria to a one party state which he argued will not be democratic and will also be against the political growth of the country.
However apart from saying that he will be going on political leave from May 29, Governor Aliyu has not said what he will be doing in the period between now and 2019.
