He said, “On coming to office I swore by the Quran because I’m a muslim to promote Fairness, Justice and Equity and I believe am doing my best in other to actualise this. That is why we went to the nooks and crannies of Gombe state to ensure there is development when you talk of road we said we will put up at least 11 kilometers in each local government.

“I have always told them that it is the elite that use religion, and ethnicity to divide people. Any good leader will ensure he works to the satisfaction of all and sundry. The hallmark of good leadership is to provide the right services to the people and that is what we are committed to.”

While urging the association and her members to ensure peaceful coexistence, to ensure progress and development.

“Despite the hardship, economic challenges that leadership is going through we will still achieve our aims and objectives because we are determined. Hunger, poverty and disease have no eyes doesn’t know a Christian or Muslim,” he said.

 

On his part, CAN North East chairman, Abari Kalla, thanked the governor for his support to the Christian community in the state.

Kalla further assured of greater support from members of his community in the state.
