Read Time:1 Minute, 15 Second
Tijjani Jobe, who represents the Dawakin Tofa/Tofa/Rimin Gado federal constituency in Kano, was criticized and removed from an All Progressives Congress (APC) ward congress in Tofa LGA.
This occurred during a party meeting for selecting ward leaders in Jobe’s hometown, where some upset young people interrupted his speech by shouting disapproving messages and making challenging comments.
In viral video clips circulating on social media, a voice from the crowd could be heard saying, “Wallahi, our leader, there are issues to fix. We hunters, you have not considered us.
As the tension escalated with continued shouting and abusive comments, aides and supporters quickly moved the lawmaker away from the venue and into a waiting vehicle.
The episode marks a notable show of grassroots discontent for Jobe, who is currently serving his fifth term in the house of representatives and is reportedly seeking a sixth term in the next general election.
Earlier this month, Jobe had publicly appealed to constituents for forgiveness over perceived shortcomings during an APC stakeholders’ meeting — a session that reportedly also descended into chaos.
Some community members have long criticised the lawmaker’s legislative performance and record of representation.
In January, Jobe resigned from the New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP) and said his decision was influenced by unresolved internal divisions and prolonged court cases within the party at both state and national levels.
