The Southern Kaduna Professionals Forum (SKPF) has refuted media reports alleging that Kaduna State Finance Commissioner, Hon. Shizzer Bada, was arrested in Lagos on charges of fraud. The group has labeled these claims as “inaccurate and exaggerated.”
Arc. Samuel Yakubu, Acting National President of SKPF, condemned the alleged plot to tarnish Hon. Bada’s reputation, attributing it to “embittered politicians” with ulterior motives. Yakubu emphasized that this is not the first attempt to discredit Bada, noting that the effort is politically motivated to smear and shame her.
“The media reports are inaccurate and inflated, sponsored by political adversaries to intimidate and harass her,” Yakubu said. The forum has urged journalists to verify information thoroughly before publication and cautioned the Anti-Graft Agency against falling prey to manipulative schemes.
SKPF accused those seeking to damage Bada’s reputation of being “enemies of Kaduna State,” aiming to undermine Governor Uba Sani’s administration. They praised Bada’s contributions to the Governor’s Sustain Agenda and called on Governor Uba Sani to protect his administration from blackmail and ensure that supporters are not targeted.
