Tragedy struck in Zamfara State when a House of Assembly aspirant aspiring to represent Birnin Magaji constituency, Alhaji Janbuzu Ango, ran mad the moment the screening committee for House of Assembly aspirants disqualified him, on Tuesday.
Investigation by the Nigerian Tribune revealed that immediately he was disqualified, he removed his trousers and jumpers inside the screening room and began to shout "Give me my money! Give me my money!"


An eyewitness told the Nigerian Tribune that some youths ran after him and held him before he was pushed into a waiting car to the house of the chairman of Birnin Magaji Local Government, at the Low Cost Housing Estate, Gusau.


When the Nigerian Tribune visited the house of the chairman, a source who pleaded for anonymity disclosed that the chairman, Alhaji Ibrahim Dangaladima, directed his personal aide to convey the embattled aspirant back to his home town at Birnin Magaji.


The aspirant, according to the Nigerian Tribune findings, was a former councillor in his area and he was running under the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) unopposed.


When contacted, a member of the screening committee, who did not want to be named, contended that the aspirant was disqualified because he presented a primary school certificate to the committee as his highest educational qualification, stressing that, "the minimum qualification for any person aspiring for the state House of Assembly is secondary school certificate."

Nnaa make una see Wahala o .

I dey laugh ooooooooooo,

Interesting that we are still keeping to this.

I hope the man gets the psychiatric help he needs.

which money was he referring to.

was he guaranteed the position in exchange for cash?

"the minimum qualification for any person aspiring for the state House of Assembly is secondary school certificate."

This is the reason we have thugs in the state and federal house of assemblies, drafting and reviewing laws that bind on over 150 million people

This is unbelievable. In most developed countries, it is mainly lawyers and people from the legal fields that venture into the legislative government. And here in Nigeria, a primary school leaver wants to get a shot at the House of Assemblies.

What can be expected from a constitution forced on us by soldiers? All living coup plotters should be shot.

see why we are still backwards

when a secondary school certificate holder can a pass law and a 1st class student in law is still unemployed

nigeria is a sad country sometimes

Hmmmmmm. I now really see how stupid these Hausas can be at times. He must have paid someone money so as to get him the position he wanted.
This is why i say these Hausas will lead us no where.
Truly speaking, if i had the chance to kill, i will make some tribes are wiped off this country starting from the Hausas.

Don't act like you don't know a primary school certificate is like a B Sc in Zamfara ? I'm sure in some towns there, even possibly an M Sc.

That being said, level of education could be misleading sometimes. Look at a country like Zimbabwe, it ought to be the best on the continent with the level of education of it's rulers but what do we have ? Yesterday i learnt that Lula can barely express himself in proper grammar but just look how he has fixed Brazil up.

Lwkmd! As a masters student of political science and an internal observer of northern politics i understand dia politics isnt dat of asasinatn lyk we av here in d west bt usin diabolical means 2 even up wit som1 u consider a stumblin blok on to way 2 victory.i knw yorubas 2 use orthodox means bt am impresd d northern politicians av STEPPED UP in d rat race of politics.dey can kip destroyin demselves 4 al i kia,dey r simply givin way 4 d next generatn unknowingly.wen i hear of a kidnapd,asasinated now madnes as political ploys n stratedgies am apy dat d foolishnes of fools destroy dem.lol.pri skul leaver wants 2 av a share too! Oloriburuku.lol

Oduduwa jounalists at work again.The guy is holder of OND from kaura Namoda poly,what really caused the problem for him,he is not in the same camp with shinkafi [state Gov.].the Gov. used his influence on the screening committee to disqualified him,the man began shouting i will go to court,this is injustice.Governor"s thug beat him up.After ten years of democracy is not possible for somebody to present primary cert. to contest election.

This guy is not mad . He is just suffering from temporary loss of reasoning caused by "chop your dollar-itis" Dem don chop im dollar and dem no won deliver . Nigerian politics is effing hilarious.

it's just absolute rubbish.the minimum standard for any political position should be raised to atleast first degree.

how can we have a mad man that was promised the seat without having anything to offer other than to go there and enrich himself ?

I await when the Rest of PDP will also run mad.
