The Governor of Katsina State, Dikko Radda, has expressed the state’s commitment to the conduct of credible local government elections.

According to the governor, the state is focused on a transparent, inclusive, and democratic process that strengthens collective democratic experience.

He used the opportunity to praise President Bola Tinubu for the ministerial appointments and federal leadership positions his administration granted Katsina.

In his remarks, Buhari called for transparency and accountability, saying such is one of the avenues to earn respect and gain popularity among constituents.

On his part, the Deputy Governor of Katsina State, Faruq Jobe, highlighted the Radda administration’s comprehensive achievements across health, education, agriculture, and human capital development.

Other political heavyweights present at the meeting included former Governors Aminu Bello Masari and Ibrahim Shehu Shema. Also former deputy governors, Alhaji Sirajo Umar Damari and Barr. Abdullahi Garba Faskari.

The meeting also had in attendance Senator Abu Ibrahim, Senator Abdulaziz Yar Adua, Senator Muntari Dandutse, and Senator Nasiru Sani Zangon Daura. The gathering also attracted House of Representatives members from the state.
