the hands of persecutors; you should not concede your votes to those you know would oppress you.”

length on the need to avoid violence in
the forth coming polls, also advised
politicians to accommodate the
criticisms from their opponents in good
faith

intimate the monarch on his plans for
Kano State said he was concerned about
the abysmal decline of education at
primary and secondary levels, adding
that with his foray into the
gubernatorial race was as a result of his
determination to deal with the rot in
the sector.

an independent power station in the
state in the face of the nation’s
appalling economy, stressing that with
adequate power supply, the state’s
economy would improve remarkably.

his priority attention because of

up with a unique concept of governance
for the state.
