Speaking about his daughter ,the bride, the former Deputy Speaker revealed, “My daughter is a likeable person; who attracts people to the family. But today, She is happily married and I am grateful to God that her wedding took place peacefully.

“Secondly, I want thank God because, when their mother died; I almost lost hope , but to God be the glory , I got a wife, who nursed them and today gave them out in Marriage . I want to thank my wife for a very good job in bringing them up.”

Fielding questions on how the 9th Kaduna State House of Assembly fared while his tenure lasted as a member,he explained: “The 9th Assembly was more or less an Assembly full of mixture and some kind of leadership style different from what we used to know about legislature. That was why the assembly and the executive had it rough .

“But the like minds of the people coming in now, from the Speaker to the Deputy Speaker and all members in the Assembly are people with experience that will bring working synergy between the Assembly and the Executive arm of governments .And I have no doubt, that all of them will work in a progressive direction to see that the people of Kaduna State benefit from the government of the day .

I went to court for one year and had a re-run and I came back and I was suspended after three months in office and never came back until after 22 months . In all, I didn’t do up to one and a half year in the Assembly, so my people were surchanged .

“There is no law in Nigeria that allows the Senate President or the Speaker of House Reps or Speaker of State Assemblies to suspend any member.

“The only people that can suspend a lawmaker are members of Constituency .This has been taken to Supreme court, Omo-Agege’s case and Aminu Case is another one and they were fully paid .

“I am not bothered about any monetary gains. I am concerned about making the state move forward and giving the best to my Constituency .

“In my service outside the Assembly , I will study the terrain If I have the opportunity to serve again in any capacity as executive, whether at state or federal level, then I will begin to chart a new course . But one thing is certain, the experience I gathered in the Assembly would be brought to bear to guide me .”

Uba Sani: A Product Of Democracy Who Understands And Appreciates The Tenets Of Democracy And It’s Value

Uba Sani: A Product Of Democracy Who Understands And Appreciates The Tenets Of Democracy And It’s Value.

BY COMRADE MUSA MOHAMMED

Elections have come and gone and the people have made their choices known on whom they trust to govern them.

The military often rejoice in the notion that surprise is the first element of war. However the emergence of His Excellency Senator Uba Sani as Governor-elect of Kaduna State is a tale long foretold. He did not get to this summit in one sudden political leap. Instead it has come as a prize, at the end of a long struggle, in which every mile of the way was contested, challenged and litigated until he crossed the finish line. In the end, SENATOR UBA SANI, candidate of the All Progressive Congress (APC) in Kaduna was declared governor-elect having scored the highest number of votes in the March 18

Uba Sani believes in people. And APC as a party is imbued with members with huge capacity in all fields. And he is a listening person. He listens to advice and counselling. You can see the outburst of the people in his support. So he is a man that would shock people.

He is a man who has been underrated by those people who do not know him. But we are very close to him and know his capacity. You see when you allow a successful person to govern, he will deliver, because he is not looking for food to eat. In my discussion with him, he has his plans. If you see someone who is talking about education, security, health, agriculture, housing, he knows what he is doing.

My advice to the people of the state is to pray for the successful tenure and to support the governor. You support the governor and behave in a manner that the law permits. Act in a lawful manner. Pay your taxes, support the government and pray for the governor and his team, and that is what we need for kaduna to grow.

You will see shortly as he mounts leadership, there will be more and more investment and investors in Kaduna and then there will be trade, people will be coming in and out. Many people will go back to kaduna and increase their investment, because he is going to give you a peaceful and enabling environment. And these are the prerequisite requirements for growth and development.

I am saying it with all the confidence that the new governor, Senator Uba Sani will govern the State successfully.

The fact is kaduna state are set to appreciate the true meaning of democracy because the man in the saddle today is a product of democracy and someone who understands and appreciates the tenets of democracy and the value it brings to the table of the populace.

Uba Sani is a true democrat who was involved in the struggle for the return of democracy to the country and has finally assumed the position of authority, “UBA SANI will not shy away from bringing to bear the dividends of democracy the people of Kaduna state have been yearning for.”

Recall when he was declared the winner, he still extend his hands of fellowship and bond of friendship to his brothers and sisters on the other side of the political divide, he call on them to join him in building a state that we all, irrespective of political affiliations, will be proud to call our home.”

I urged the people of the state not to allow themselves to be used as agents of violent disorder.

We remain the proud sons and daughters of Kaduna State, and no disruptive influences of politics should break the cords of our togetherness.

The people of the state should be praying for governor UBA SANI to have a successful tenure.

Policy direction: Arewa group commends Tinubu’s move

The Arewa New Agenda(ANA) has welcomed the appointment of Malam Nuhu Ribadu as Special Adviser on Security, describing it as the right step taken by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu in the right direction.

A statement by the Convener of the Group, Sen. Ahmed Abubakar MoAllahyidi, noted that Tinubu has exhibited exemplary leadership and wisdom with his most recent appointments of Special Advisers including that of Nuhu Ribadu. 

With particularly the appointments of Senator George Akume as Secretary to the Government of the Federation and Nuhu Ribadu as SA Security, President Tinubu has signaled his intention to tackle the twin menace of security and corruption, the Group said.

Noting that he excitement following the appointment of the special adviser on security is still re-vibrating around the country, the Group expressed hope that Nigeria will get it right this time around. 

“Prior to his appointment as the Chairman of EFCC in 2003, Ribadu served as key operational officer in the General Investigation and the Force Criminal Investigation Departments of the of the Nigerian Police.

 He was a member of the highly commended Failed Banks Tribunal that sanitized the rottenness in the Nigerian Banking sector of the late eighties,” the Group recounted. 

According to them, Ribadu has been widely acknowledged as bringing to his job a deep passion and an exemplary sense of dedication and efficiency. In three years, the EFCC under his leadership built the now most celebrated Crimes Training and Research Institute in the-sub-region. 

These achievements, they said, helped make the EFCC a reference Law Enforcement Agency on the continent; and the bold investigation, prosecution, and conviction of Nigeria’s hitherto untouchable politicians and businessmen earned him the reputation of being a foremost and respected anti-corruption crusader in the world. 

“It is to his record that he rejected a N30 million bribe from one of the country’s major money laundering offenders in 2005, although the most sensational report of his ethical conduct thus far was the 2007 rejection of a $15 million bribe from a former governor from one of Nigeria’s Niger Delta states. 

“In acknowledgement of these modest achievements, he was promoted Assistant Inspector General of Police (AIG), in March 2007; the African Union put him on its advisory board on anti-corruption matters; and he was lately invited to join the advisory board of the friends of the World Bank/UNODC initiative on stolen-asset-recovery,” the said. 

Other notable achievement of Mallam Ribadu according to the Group, include but not limited to the de-listing of Nigeria from the Financial Action Task Force (on Money Laundering) (FATF) List of Non-Cooperative Countries & Territories, admission into the prestigious The Egmont Group and the withdrawal of the US Treasury the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) Advisory on Nigeria.  

“This No 1 crime fighting czar on the continent of Africa; Mallam Nuhu Ribadu it was who led the  conviction, jailing and the return of £150 million il-gotten wealth of the most powerful Police Man on the continent of Africa. 

“This astute and fearless police officer it was who diligently investigated and provided evidence that helped prosecute foreign businesses who turned our country into one in which bribes must be offered while doing business in Nigeria,” they said. 

They listed major achievements and recognitions Ribadu has garnered during his service to the Nigerian nationc to  includes World Bank’s 2008 Jit Gill Memorial Award for Outstanding Public Service,  the Global Lifetime Achievement Award on anti-corruption campaign from Qatar-based think-tank, Rule of Law and Anti-corruption Centre (ROLACC) and Malaysian Anti-Corruption Award from the Rule of Law and Anti-corruption Centre (ROLACC).

“On Friday December 7 2018, Mallam Nuhu Ribadu won the Sheikh Tamim Bn Hamad al Thani International Anti-Corruption Excellence Award. 

“In May 2010 he made the list of the 20 most influential Nigerians alongside people like Philip Emagwali, Aliko Dangote, Emake Anyoku, Ngozi Okonjo Iweala, Wole Soyinka and others,” the Group noted. 

 The Group said it has followed with keen interest how the administration has approached and put forward its intention to provide leadership and discharge the responsibility of governance. “President Tinubu has in two weeks exhibited the ability to tackle key issues in the country by taking some tough decisions. Many commentators have spoken about this new breath of ‘Governance-fresh-air’ it is not out of place for us to revisit some of the popular decisions and actions the President has taken in his less than three weeks of being President,” they said.
