Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>All is already not too well between the Governor-elect of Jigawa State, Umar Namadi Danmodi and the outgoing Governor, Muhammad Abubakar Badaru.<\/p>\n

Badaru is being accused of allegedly holding on to power by pushing for the appointment of his men into key positions in the incoming government.<\/p>\n

Some loyalists of the Governor-elect were arrested on Wednesday on the account of a radio programme where they accused Badaru of allegedly trying to have full control of the incoming Government.<\/p>\n

Those arrested, according to the report, were the former Jigawa State All Progressives Congress, APC, chairman, Alhaji Habibu Sani Sara and one other loyalist of the Governor-Elect.<\/p>\n

Our correspondent sent a text message to the personal number of Governor Badaru enquiring on the reports that he was allegedly in squabble with his successor, but he was yet to respond.<\/p>\n

Similarly, several calls to the phone number of the Governor-elect, Umar Namadi Danmodi were not answered.<\/p>\n

However, reports had it that Danmodi\u2019s henchmen met late Wednesday night at one of the hotels in Kano, discussing the matter and how to tackle it.<\/p>\n

It was also gathered that the Transition Committee set up by the Governor-elect is inactive owing to alleged refusal of the outgoing government to fully cooperate with it.<\/p>\n
