TALBA 1 TAKES A SWIPE ON CRITICS
An APC political stalwart in Plateau State, Chief Dr Sammuel Pukat also known as Talba 1 has lambasted his political opponents for spreading rumors of abandonment of his political supporters.
Talba who is eyeing the Mangu Bokkos Federal House of Reps seat in a swift response said " politics is a wonderful game and most politicians want to use whatever negative thing against their opponents provided it will give them what they want, but of course it is not all politicians that are doing that".
He recalled that he started practical politics some years ago and he started with a campaign director general and till today that DG is still with him and he never had a cause to change him or abandoned him nor his team adding that he is always with his supporters.
Surprised at the allegation leveled against him of not maintaining his political structures, Talba 1 who is also the Sardaunan Matasan Arewa disclosed that " I can't imagine where someone will go and be digging something that is not there because of cheap political gains, he added that his campaign DG, Hon John Samson Mashat and two members if his inner cacus are here with him, the press can interview them", "if these people are with me up till this point then you can imagine the concocted lies somebody is bringing in order to tarnish my political image".
In a swipe, Talba 1 said " I know that my opponents are scared of my political prowees, they are just scared but we will meet at the polls ".
On whether he has left APC he revealed that he has always been an APC man and he is still going to contest under " our great party APC".
On his advice to the youths, the Sardaunan Matasan Arewa said " let us first of all look at the platforms for the youths, you see the youths are like an empty land newly cultivated and anything you plant there will germinate and you will harvest that thing, our youths, to an extent have been ignored in some few quoters but you see, idle mind is always the workshop of the devil. Because the youths have been idle for sometimes, at some points it is their own mistake at some point it is not their mistake. Today some of them are in the mountains, some are in the caves,some are in different forests all round and they have turned themselves into wild animals. To them, some are saying they are seeking vengeance, so my clarion call to the youths at this moment is that no man will be declared winner inspire of the fact that he is the first to arrive the winning point, but what actually makes you a winner is when you follow the rules of the game in getting where you are. This government of President Mohammadu Buhari and of course of our beloved Governor Lalong, they have put down platforms for the youths, for the first time of politics in Nigeria we are seeing a President that has signed a bill into law "not too young to run". So I believe that the platform is set for the youths so they can get what they want through the rule of the game, and what is the rule of the game? Full participation in the political activities, and of course be part of it.
Let them get themselves involved so that they will determine where the next government will come from. Am advising the youths also that they cannot eat their cake and have it, it is not possible. Some of them will go to this one and say we are with you100%, get some money and then go to another person and say the same thing. You cannot endanger your destiny like that, so my clarion call to my youths, I call them my youths because of my deepest concern, my concern for them is that they hold the mantle of tomorrow, and if they wast it now they will regret tomorrow. There is a call for sacrifice to make a good use of the provisions given to them by the government. So am calling on them to participate from the beginning to the end of all political activities. Put your appetite aside so that you can use your real brain to dictate what will happen in the nest government".
Also in a respond, hon John Samson Mashat, the campaign director general of Chief Dr Samuel Pukat, Talba 1 for Mangu Bikkos Fed House of Reps said the accusations hauled at his principal is laughable noting that " I want to assure you our campaign structure is intact right from the units to the wards and local government levels. We are still with our people very very wel".
On some of the things his principal has done to keep the people together Mashat revealed that Talba 1 has done a lot right from last elections we have been able to keep our structure together. At festive periods my principal takes care of the welfare of all our coordinators, he gave money for some of the coordinators to go and participate in life changing issues on people. He has saved several lives in different hospitals both within the local government hospitals and in the villages.people can testify to this. He has done a lot and has been in touch with his people from time to time. This accusations are the hand work of our political opponents and mischief makers but I want to tell you Talba1 is the best Candida to beat come 2023.
