Governor Abdullahi Umar Ganduje emphasized the need for all Nigerian’s irrespective of religion to come together and ensure that Nigeria continue to be unified and grow from strength to strength.
He described the disagreement between the Northern and southern governors as unfortunate, saying that the governors were voted to keep Nigeria as one for progress and development.
The governor urged the federal government and security agencies to maintain the tempo in its fight against insecurity and insurgency in Nigeria.
“There is no doubt if they continue with this tempo very soon the problem will be curtailed. Here in Kano state I would like to thank the security agencies and paramilitary who are well coordinated in maintaining peace and stability.
