He added that Sen. Shettima was in the class of leaders who had proven their mettle in the private sector and public service, achieving tremendous results in both sectors.

The governor acknowledged that the celebrant remained a very bold, selfless and courageous leader who led his state in the most difficult times but despite the state being under the siege of Boko Haram insurgents, his administration spearheaded giant strides in the education sector, alongside other laudable achievements in the state.
