When A Revered Emir Spoke Raw Truth To Power & Its Lieutenants

"You are the ones in power, but you have forgotten the common people. Politics has become selfishness, not service."

"Every 4 years you come to my palace with cap in hand, asking for prayers, asking for support. After election, you disappear to Abuja, to Lagos. You don't come back until next election. Is palace voting center or toilet that you visit only when pressed?"

"In my days, politics was about community. Now politics is about one man, his son, his wife, his bank account. You call it Renewed Hope, but people in Katsina are in renewed hunger."

"You are fighting each other in APC - Governor Dikko Radda vs former Governor Masari vs former Governor Aminu Bello Masari supporters vs Abuja boys. All fighting for 2027 ticket while bandits are in Batsari, in Jibia, in Safana killing people. Is that not selfishness? Your people are dying, you are fighting for ticket."

"In my Emirate, 52 schools closed because of bandits - same number Doka mentioned in his article. Farmers cannot go to farm in 12 LGAs. People pay N10m, N20m ransom to Turji and his boys. And you come to me talking about DG campaign for Tinubu 2027? Should you not be talking about DG security for Katsina 2026?"

"Where is Bello Turji? You promised to handle security. Turji is in forest 100km from here. Go and bring him, then come and campaign."

"If You Are Selfish, People Will Be Selfish With Their Votes".

"If you do politics of selfishness - only for your family, your cronies, your contacts - then people will also do politics of selfishness. They will collect your rice and vote against you. They will collect your N5,000 and still vote for who they want. Because you taught them selfishness."

"In 2023, you brought rice, you brought money, but Katsina people still split votes. In 2027, if you bring same selfish politics, they will collect but not vote you."
