If you haven’t heard that the Governor of Niger State, Alhaji
Abubakar Sanni Bello, has a Senior Special Adviser (SSA), Yusuf Waili
for timekeeping and scheduling, then you’ve “carried last”.
We know you are shocked, so the Chief Press Secretary has deemed it fit to explain why the Governor requires a Time-Keeper.
He said,
Therefore, if time is money, we want to do all we can to
save it, so that we can employ this valuable resource in working for the
people. And if we’re going to divorce ourselves from the wastefulness
of the past (e.g. African Time), we must do something emphatic to bring
about that change. This includes engaging someone to keep our governor
on schedule, the way it’s done elsewhere
Wait, so the Governor needs someone to keep him “on schedule”.
An alarm clock would have been LOADS more cheaper!

Governor, Alhaji Abubakar Sani Bello appoints political officers in his
