COUNTER RESPONSE TO HON. HAJIA LARDI'S RESPONSE
I have come across a purported response to my write-up three days ago in which Hon. Hajia Ayii Ayamba attempted twisting the facts and hiding behind the usual propaganda of politicians to exonerate herself of wrong doing and wish to set the records straight as follows:
First, she claimed that the NPP government failed to release funds for the completion of the project after NDC lost the elections to them. It should be noted that the contract in question was awarded in 2012, four solid years before the NDC lost the 2016 elections and the slow progress of work cannot be blamed on NPP government. The Dining hall project, which was awarded to Alhaji Bomziel at the same time was completed on time despite the fact that Alhaji Bomziel is also a known member of NDC. My checks from GETFund indicate that the NPP government never owed her a dime. Anytime she presented her certificate, they paid her.
Second, she is claiming that her tenure saw an increase in enrolment numbers. This is totally false. The colleges of education operate quota system and no council chairperson can influence enrolment numbers. The admission numbers are strictly determined at the national level. In fact , in my write-up, I was referring to increase in female enrolment, which is now approaching 1:1 parity with male enrolment, thereby necessitating more accommodation for females in the College.
Third, she further claims that she renovated the College Auditorium after the rain storm disaster. This is nothing less than a total insult to Kusaug. The auditorium was renovated using the College IGF and the records are there to show. In fact, she does not even know the name of the contractor that renovated the College auditorium.
Lastly, she again claimed building the College fence wall. This is absolutely false. The fence wall was built at the time Mr. Patrick Seidu was the council chairman and not the time of Hon. Hajia Lardi. Those from Pusiga town and who fear God can attest that it was recently that the fence wall and the College main gates projects were completed. These projects were carried out at the time the government she is acusing of starving her the funds needed to complete the female hostel was still in power.
I have seen that she also talked about her achievements in other areas such as securing jobs for her constituents. My response to that is simple. I am not politically witch hunting her and wish her well in whatever she does. I am only talking about what l know and which is true.
Anybody who doubts what I am saying can go to the College to verify.
For God and for Kusaug, I stand!
