Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>The Executive Chairman of Zamfara State Board of Internal Revenue Service, Alhaji Akilu Mohammed Dama has denied having any knowledge of posters and stickers that went viral on social media asking political actors to nominate him to represent Zamfara Central senatorial zone.<\/p>\n

In a press statement he personally signed and issued to newsmen in Gusau, the State capital, the Chairman explained that he got the information that customized stickers and political posters had gone viral on social media seeking to make him a senatorial candidature for Zamfara Central Senatorial zone.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am making it clear here that I never asked or supported any person or group of persons to embark on such assignment,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

The Chairman noted that he stands by his earlier media briefing that his job for now was that of assisting the Governor in generating revenue for the State and that he was satisfied with the assignment.<\/p>\n

\u201cI hereby state that I reject the agitation because I am satisfied with the assignment given to me by the Governor of the State.<\/p>\n

\u201cHowever, I thank all the political actors within the party and beyond for identifying me worthy of the position.<\/p>\n

\u201cI equally appeal to them to halt such posts and publications and refer the matter to my boss, the Governor, to decide. The choice is his and we are ready to go by his instructions under all circumstances,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n
