Governor Kashim Shettima
Borno State Governor, Alhaji Kashim Shettima has finally dissolved members of the State executive council after what was described as serious consultations.
This followed rumour that most of the the commissioners and Special advisers are planning to dump him for PDP ahead of the 2015 general election, a former adviser told DailyPost in Maiduguri.
It could be recalled that last week, the political adviser to the governor as well as a Senior Special Assistant has called off their three years relationship with the governor and moved to join former governor Ali Modu Sheriff’s camp in the PDP.
It could also be recalled that several of the commissioners and Special Advisers to the governor were said to have sent people to inform the Sheriff’s camp of their desire to join forces against the governor in 2015, a situation which is said to be causing much concern to the governor.
“Shettima has dissolved his cabinet as we speak for fear that most of them are going to dump him soon to come over to join Oga”, A former adviser told DailyPost.
“We are do not know why he chose this time to do so, but from all indications, the governor is confused and desperate, owing to the unfolding scenarios ahead of 2015.” He added.
He said Shettima’s political calculations had failed him, as the governor, according to him, was in serious dilemma over who to trust.
