FALGORE: THE PRIDE THAT SILENCES DETRACTORS
In recent days, we have observed a few hired contractors, who have no knowledge of the issues they speak about, ranting with baseless and unfounded allegations. They themselves do not even know their own direction, and it is evident that their actions are driven by envy and malice, aimed at diminishing the honour and dignity bestowed upon Falgore by Almighty Allah. Whether they like it or not, Falgore’s light has shone and it continues to illuminate Rogo Local Government and Kano State at large.

If you seek a true leader — courageous, loyal, and faithful to his social contract with his people — then look no further than Rt. Hon. Speaker Jibril Isma’il Falgore.
Falgore is a young, charismatic and patient political leader who will continue to unsettle his political adversaries, for the future belongs to those who prepare for it, and envy against the blessed is futile.
As the Speaker of the Kano State House of Assembly, he has every right and privilege to air his views on any matter, and for every word he utters we ask: Is it not the truth? He did them good and they reciprocated with good — is that a crime? If it is a crime, let it be stated. It is important that peddlers of baseless rumours take time to understand how things work.
Anyone who throws pebbles at us, if it is because of Falgore, we shall respond with a hammer.
For those who engage in idle talk and gossip about him, it is time for the people of Rogo and Kano to examine who they really are — what is their integrity, what is their worth, how does the public perceive them, and what weight do they carry when placed on the scale of honour and credibility. Knowing this will help the discerning to understand their true mission. But it is clear that those who continue to stagger in the streets and display rascality on social media are only doing what they think will sabotage the administration of the Rt. Hon. Speaker. But they are too late, for he who wakes up before you will always rise before you.

Falgore is a brave leader, an astute and knowledgeable legislator and a master of the art of governance. Under his leadership, the Assembly has witnessed tremendous progress, including the enactment of numerous laws that have become government policies, in addition to developmental projects in Rogo and Karaye, the construction of the new Kano State House of Assembly complex, and the improvement of the welfare and salary structure of Assembly staff — a feat that has earned him awards and commendations from all corners of the State.
Falgore has received awards of honour both within and outside Nigeria, including the recent honour by the Parliamentary Staff Association of Nigeria (PASAN), which recognized him as the most impactful Speaker in Nigeria and a champion of staff welfare in the legislature.
Whether we agree or not, Falgore will continue to play a pivotal role in the politics of Rogo Local Government and Kano State in general.
Our advice to these political jobbers is that they must understand, even though they already know but hatred and envy prevent them from acknowledging, that when the sun has risen, the palm cannot block its rays. Those who engage in vain and frivolous criticism are increasingly seen by respectable people as directionless individuals. Our counsel to them is to be cautious, for people are watching. Political praise-singing and blackmail did not start with them, and they should look at how those who engaged in it before them ended. Therefore, it is left for them to either retrace their steps or allow the world to teach them a lesson. It is left for the dyer to do what is right.
Falgore, continue with your good works. The people of Rogo are aware of you, Kano State is aware of you, and we are confident that Allah who created you is aware of you.
