The Speaker of the House of Representatives, Abbas Tajudeen, Chief of Defence Staff, and Chieftains of some political parties in Kaduna State have congratulated Governor Uba Sani on his victory at the Election Petitions Tribunal.
The Speaker said in a media statement that Gov. Sani’s victory “has affirmed the massive support he received from the people of Kaduna State during the March governorship election.” Tajudeen also noted that Governor Uba Sani had “already started justifying the trust and the support he got from his people by initiating people-oriented programmes and projects in the state.”
During a working visit to Kaduna State, the Chief of Defence Staff, Major-General Christopher Musa, also congratulated the governor on his affirmation by the Elections Tribunal. “We feel privileged to have you as the governor of Kaduna State because you have a good heart…” the army chief declared.
Meanwhile, a delegation of five opposition parties in the State have also paid a courtesy visit to the office of Governor Sani at the Sir Kashim Ibrahim House. Veteran Kaduna politician and former Commissioner of Information, Alhaji Rabiu Bako, congratulated Governor Sani, describing the victory at the tribunal as a blessing for democracy in the State.
Many interest groups and associations had earlier sent letters of congratulations to Senator Uba Sani for the affirmation of his victory as the duly elected governor of the State.
