“All these are calculated
desperate attempts by Governor Dauda Lawal to discredit the minister before President Bola Ahmed Tinubu GCFR due  to his rising political profile in Zamfara and Nigeria in general”.
“These are parts of the gimmicks of Governor Lawal Dauda who has been a continuous guest to media houses with the aim of tarnishing the image of the Honourable Minister of State for Defence  Dr. Matawalle  and also to block his  re- appointment  as a Minister since the news of imminent cabinet reshuffle”.
“Governor Lawal or his proxies campaign against Matawalle is not acceptable and befitting  of his status in  trying to run down his own brother who is a top government functionary”.
