It was against this backdrop that a team from the Nigerian Red Cross Society (NRCS), supported by UNICEF, arrived in Jigawa for what they described as both a promotion and close-out of a flood preparedness and resilience project.

This was contained in a statement signed by the Secretary to the Government of Jigawa State, Malam Bala Ibrahim.

Jigawa remains one of the leading states in pension administration because the system is built on a solid foundation with strong support from the government,” he said.

Prof. Abdulkarim said with the matriculation exercise today, the students have entered into contractual agreement with the university as full fledged students with rights, privileges and obligations attached to their new status.

The appointment of His Royal Highness is highly fitting. He is a leader with profound religious understanding and vast experience in community leadership.

In addition to the Amirul Hajj, the Governor has also approved the appointment of Malam Umaru Nasarawa, and Alhaji Kabiru Ali Kachallan Dutse, as members of the Amirul Hajj Team.

The call was made during a well-attended sensitisation rally held in Dutse, where the youth leaders stressed the need for credible, experienced and reform-minded leadership to deepen democratic governance in Jigawa State and across Nigeria.

The rivalry between the Northern People’s Congress (NPC) and the radical Northern Elements Progressive Union (NEPU), led by Mallam Aminu Kano, clearly demonstrated that political actors in Kano were willing to break ranks whenever interests diverged. 

The efforts ot the SUBEB chairman Professor Haruna Musa in ensuring accountability in education services provision, enrollment, retention and transition of the girl child, quality teachers and community involvement in education service provision is commendable and appreciated.

During the inauguration ceremony held in Dutse, the Head of the Medical Team and Chief Medical Director of Hadejia Specialist Hospital, Dr Habibu Abubakar, assured the Board and the public that the team was ready to carry out its duties with diligence and professionalism.
