Zulum Hails Shettima as ‘Rare Mentor’ on 57th Birthday

Eko Hot Blog reports that Borno State Governor Babagana Umara Zulum has described Vice President Kashim Shettima as a “great and humble mentor” on his 57th birthday.

In a statement by his aide, Zulum said Shettima is “very difficult to find” and that he has “liberally given us (his mentees) the rare opportunities of using what we have learnt from him to independently create our own identities of leadership for the benefit of our people in Borno State and beyond.”
