The “Betara revolution”, has become the singsong enveloping the northern political space as well as other parts of the country currently.
And the chorus is becoming deafening across most, wards, constituencies, senatorial districts and states as the electorates await the 2023 electioneering campaigns to kick off by the end of September.
Every constituent across the northern fringes is demanding a Betara treatment from political office seekers as condition for their votes during the forthcoming polls.
The Betara whirlwind, for those who may not get the drift; all-consuming, started from Southern Borno.
To be specific, Biu, Shani, Kwaya Kusar and Bayo federal constituency. It is synonymous with Honourable Mukhtar Betara Aliyu, Chairman House of Representatives Committee on Budget and Appropriation.
The largely unknown young man, who traversed all the local government areas within the federal constituency to canvas our votes many years ago, has become a phenomenon through an enviable and formidable track record of performance that will be difficult to match many decades to come.
