Kano State Civil Society Forum (KCSF) has debunked reports in circulation in some media platforms indicating that the forum is engulfed in leadership crisis.
The insinuation was cleared unfounded by the President of the forum, Amb. Ibrahim Waiya while reacting to a publication by some online media platforms with the titles; Exclusive: Nine-Year Tight Grip on Leadership at Kano Civil Society Forum Throws Members into Disarray and After 9 Years in Acting Role, Members Call for Election Amidst Kano Civil Society Leadership Dispute.
Amb. Waiya described the stories as an act of mischief, mere fabrication, misleading, and unprofessional by those behind the platforms basically to cause harm in the affairs of the forum.
"The concocted story was a sponsored one by some fake and paid persons claiming to be members of civil societies in the state," he pointed out.
He stated that, "For such claims to be made by anonymous persons, is an indication of mischief and deliberate attempt to cause confusion among it's members."
Waiya, affirmed that, the CSOs under the auspices of Kano Civil Society Forum, KCSF had always been peaceful and will continue to work towards promoting peace and development of all it's members adding that, preparation are in place for the forthcoming elections of the forum.
However, Amb. Waiya charged those behind the platforms to always fact-check claims and balance before rushing to publish a story to avoid lazy journalism.
