On Friday, 16th of October, 2015, Governor,Malam Nasir El-Rufai went into an outburst over those criticising his appointments in the state as lopsided.
He was criticised for appointing close friends, family members and non-indigenes in key positions in the state.
According to Vanguard, while answering questions from stakeholders at the 4th town hall meeting with Kaduna Central, he said he could not give appointment to persons that did not vote for him during the last governorship election, adding that anyone that was unhappy about it could go commit suicide.
He said:
If you are not happy with appointments made, you can go and climb Kufena mountain, fall and die.
“It was what you voted that you got, because we are aware that there are people who did not vote for us, in fact they worked against us.“But now they claim to be APC members and loyal to the party. We know such people. And so there is no way they would expect anything from us.
Earlier, Governor El-Rufai also unveiled new logo for the state saying henceforth the state will now use its own court of arms.
“As a reflection of our confidence in the future of Kaduna State, we are today unveiling a new State Logo.
