Furthermore, he prayed that Almighty God grant the Governor the strength and will to implement the agenda to the latter.
Responding, Governor Aliyu assured Shehu that he is committed to reversing the negative indices that portrayed the state with the highest poverty rate.
He also assured that his nine point agenda would set the state among the most competitive states in the country.
