“We are all familiar with the area that leads in food production across our country, but unfortunately it has fallen victim to the destructive activities of Boko Haram which have adversely affected healthcare and education as well as infrastructure. The establishment of this commission will allow for much-needed restoration efforts.”
The President has demonstrated deep affection for the people in this region, and any effort made towards improving the North West ultimately benefits the entire nation due to our interdependence.

“I implore Nigerians to collaborate with him as he has demonstrated his achievements in Lagos. We acknowledge and value his accomplishments.”
According to Mr. Jibrin, the actions of this individual prove that he is a trustworthy leader. It’s important for us to remain patient and keep in mind that great accomplishments take time – not everything can be achieved overnight. We should continue praying for him as we move beyond his first year; it’s essential to support him and ignore anyone who wishes to derail his progress.”
