Kaduna State Governor Uba Sani has presented the staff of office to Mr. Ishaku Tagwai Sambo as the fifth chief of Moro’a, a first class chief in the state.
Governor Sani prayed that Sambo’s reign be marked by wisdom, welfare and widespread goodwill.
Speaking in Manchok yesterday, the governor advised the new chief to lead with courage, govern with compassion and uphold the values of justice, fairness and service.
The governor reminded him that the appointment was more than a title, a trust, a testament and a task.
“It is a trust handed to you by your people and sanctioned by the laws of Kaduna State. You are succeeding a colossus, the late Chief Tagwai Sambo, your father, who reigned for 58 remarkable years, a leader renowned for peace, patience and purpose.
His memory is etched in the heart of our state, and his legacy lives on in the values he upheld. May his soul rest in perfect peace,’’ he said.
Sani urged the people of Moro’a Chiefdom to support the new chief by standing with him; strengthening his hands with their loyalty, love and labour.
Speaking after his coronation, Chief Sambo thanked the guests that came to witness the event, adding,‘’Your presence is a testimony to the unity and peace that exist amongst us.’’
He paid tribute to his late father and predecessor, whom he said served the chiefdom, Kaduna State and Nigeria with an unwavering commitment and dedication until his passing on June 14, 2024.
