He said: “That is why a long time ago we decided to visit IDPs and also provided palliatives and we even went to the extent of taking some of your orphans to our state and established a school for them and we are educating them even up to university level free of charge.

“We are ready to take more of such children because your children are our children and we believe there is no way you can handle this matter effectively especially that it is increasing almost on a daily basis.”

In his response, Governor Zulum thanked the Kano State Government for the spirit of brotherhood and called for more collaboration among the two states.
