Aisha Alhassan, Nigeria’s former Minister of Women Affairs, has retrieved
\nitems she donated to the All Progressives Congress (APC) secretariat in
\nTaraba State.<\/p>\n
Following her resignation from the party after she was disqualified from
\ncontesting for the state governorship ticket on the platform of the APC,
\n‘Mama Taraba’, as she is popularly known, removed rugs, computer systems,
\ntables, among other items from the state secretariat, insisting that “APC
\ndoesn’t deserve anything of mine”.<\/p>\n
Condemning the development when he spoke to NAN on Wednesday, Aaron
\nArtimas, APC Publicity Secretary in the state, said: “We find this
\ndevelopment shameful, unfortunately it is true. The former Minister has
\nemptied the office she furnished when she was a member of the APC.<\/p>\n
“It is amazing to us because Aisha Alhassan was the highest beneficiary of
\nthe party in the state. It is a very shameful action, but we shall leave
\nher to conscience.”<\/p>\n
However, Alhassan denied physically removing the items but said she
\nsupported those who did, as the party did not deserve them.<\/p>\n
Her words: “I bought the items with my money. When my boys told me they
\nwere removing them from the party secretariat, I gave them the go-ahead
\nbecause the APC does not deserve anything of mine.<\/p>\n
\u201cI could not have moved the items to Abuja. I merely gave my boys the nod
\nto move them out because the APC was wicked to me. If I had left the party
\non my own, I would not have bothered about the items, but you know the
\ncircumstances that pushed me out.<\/p>\n
\u201cI bought the items to furnish the party secretariat, but since I have
\nmoved to the UDP, I did not see anything wrong with moving with all my
\nbelongings. They should buy their own furniture for the offices.”<\/p>\n
