Dr Abubakar Yakubu noted that the agency had been engaging in high-level social sensitisation and mobilisation advocacy across communities in Kogi state.Jamb Result
According to PM NEWS, Yakubu, ”How can something we are practically persuading people to take now be the same thing we are demanding for money before administering?
”The state government completely rejects the report and thereby demand for an immediate and unreserved apology from the publisher of the fake news as well as its generator, CITAD“.
He added, “Failure to tender the apology, the government will be forced to take punitive measures against the NGO and its collaborators”.
