While speaking in an exclusive interview with
DailyTrust, the Senator representing Zamfara
Central under the platform of the All Progressives
Congress (APC), Kabiru Garba Marafa, revealed
that he is extremely rich because to him, richness
is in the mind.
The Northern lawmaker said; “As far as I’m
concerned, I’m richer than Aliko Dangote because
the little I have is enough for me. I have never
put myself in a very tight situation.
"This is my sixth year as a senator and I’m still
living in a rented house. I don’t have a house in
Abuja but I believe when the time comes I’ll have
it.”
Marafa, in the interview said he operates on a
principle of 60 kobo and 40 kobo, and promised
the people that voted for him that he would not
steal the money meant for them.
“People voted me into this office. So, I should not
just come here to serve myself and my children.
"What I promised people was that I’m not going
to be perfect but on every naira I get, I’m going to
spend 60 kobo on them and the remaining 40
kobo on myself. This is the principle that I
operate. “
