Governor Babagana Zulum of Borno State has assured the people of the state that the President-elect, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu shares the pain of the state, and he’ll surely deliver on his promises.
Governor Zulum said this on Friday when he hosted the Vice President-elect, Kashim Shettima, to a Sallah lunch at the Government House in Maiduguri, the state capital.
He also said while he would miss the huge support he got from the outgoing President Muhammadu Buhari, he was relieved that the combination of Tinubu and Senator Kashim Shettima were coming on board.
His words: “It is one of my greatest joys that here today, His Excellency Senator Kashim Shettima is sitting in our midst as the Vice President-elect of the Federal Republic of Nigeria waiting to be sworn in. It has been one of my prayers since I was sworn in as governor in 2019.”
“On a different occasion, President Buhari has lamented that nobody is as supportive as it should be in addressing the problems faced in Borno State. It is true that this has been one of my nightmares. Insha Allah in the next four years to come, I have with me a brother, and indeed a boss that will support me and support the government and people of Borno State. We have incoming President Bola Tinubu who dearly loves Borno State and shares our pains.”
