Why Senator Jibrin Deserves To Be Senate President – Maisudan

Kano, as the largest commercial and industrial hub of Northern Nigeria, has played a significant role in the country’s economic and political development and despite its role, Kano is yet to produce a civilian President, Vice President or Senate President of Nigeria.

The chairman, Maliya Media Teamwork, Abdullahi Salisu Maisudan, made the above observation during a media briefing where he emphasised that the 10th National Assembly brings about a fresh political outlook for the North and Nigeria at large, and it was imperative that the Senate President to be someone who understands the political terrain of the country and is capable of steering the ship of the Senate towards meaningful progress.

He, therefore, opined that Senator Barau Jibrin representing Kano North in the Senate, was the perfect answer to Nigerian youths’ call for the next Senate President.

Maisudan reminded Nigerians that Senator Jibrin is an experienced politician who has been in the National Assembly since 1999 as initially a member of the House of Representatives until 2015 when he was elected as Senator representing Kano North Senatorial District of Kano State.

He held several positions, including Chairman of the Senate Committee on Appropriations, where he played a critical role in the passage of the 2019 budget.

“Senator Jibrin’s leadership qualities, coupled with his vast knowledge of the legislative process and his experience in managing complex issues, make him the ideal candidate for the Senate Presidency. He is a man of integrity, with a deep understanding of the issues affecting his constituents and the country at large,” Maisudan stated.

The chairman of Northwest APC Youth Solidarity Forum also noted that Senator Jibrin among the contestants for the Senate Presidency is hardworking, vibrant and a dedicating member of the Red Chamber.

The group emphasised that Kano deserves to produce the Senate President in the incoming 10th National Assembly, and Senator Jibrin was the perfect candidate to lead the Senate towards meaningful progress.

“With his experience, leadership qualities, and integrity, Senator Jibrin is the answer to Kano’s call for a Senate President,” Maisudan added.
