‘Misplaced priority’ — outcry as Matawalle inspects Zamfara lodge in Kaduna
Bello Matawalle, governor of Zamfara, has been criticised on social media over the inspection of a lodge of the state government in Kaduna.
Abdulwali Anwar Tahir, the governor’s senior special assistant on new media, had tweeted images of the lodge, saying Matawalle went to see for himself “the ongoing project.”
“His Excellency Governor Dr. @Bellomatawalle1 went to see for himself the ongoing project of Zamfara State Government Lodge in Kaduna,” Tahir tweeted.

Also, a supporter of the governor using same pictures tweeted, saying: “If we have many capable, fearless, workaholic and intelligent politicians like @Bellomatawalle1 in Nigeria, Nigeria won’t be as bad as this, Once again congrats Zamfarawa for having DODO as your 001.”

However, many social media users kicked against the action, saying the governor ought not to embark on such project when a lot needed to be done back in Zamfara.
But some persons still hailed the governor, especially for his performance in other areas such as health and agriculture.
Misplaced priority.

Gusau is a slum, Zamfara state is a security mess, but sure, a Kaduna Lodge. Kaduna is one state away, what is the governor doing there long enough to need a lodge that he can't be housed in KDSG House? This is utterly disgusting.https://t.co/QtbDpG9ljm

Government lodge in Kaduna? How many times does he need to visit Kaduna and sleep over? Are there no hotels that can serve the purpose?
Just say he built a retirement home for himself.— Blessed Beyond Measure (BBM) (@Drmuzoic) July 4, 2020
The idea of erection of Shinkafi Orthopedic Hosp is a welcome achievement and development for the entire people of Zamfara and not Shinkafi alone. May Allah continue upgrade your level, Sir….Barden Nigeria, Matawalle.

This aberration must stop.
Government lodges all over the place should be sold.
Hotels serve this purpose.
