According to him, the governor has worked very hard to restore peace to the state over the last four years, particularly supporting all the security agents in the state to realize their mandate of securing lives and property.

Buhari also noted the strategic leadership role the governor had been playing as Chairman of the Northern Governors’ Forum by consistently mobilizing his colleagues to tackle the peculiar challenges in the region.

He also lauded the governor for ensuring that “the Federal Government pays more attention to the demands of education, health and security’’.
