My people of Kaduna,
Good morning.
Today, after wide consultations with our leaders, our elders, our women, our youths, and stakeholders across the 23 Local Governments of our dear state, I stand before you with a deep sense of responsibility and hope.
The task ahead of us is clear. Kaduna needs leadership that unites us. Leadership that delivers. Leadership that puts the people first.
In that spirit, I am proud and honored to announce to you today, the man who will run with me on this journey as my Deputy Gubernatorial Candidate for 2027.
He is a son of Kaduna.
A grassroots man.
A professional.
A bridge-builder.
