“Governor Ganduje is determined to run an all-inclusive and participatory government, as all relevant stakeholders will be given their rightful place in running the affairs of the state.“Kano belongs to all of us. We will embrace everybody: the traditional rulers, the Ulama, civil servants and all other interested parties. We need to get everyone together for the task ahead and move our state forward,” the statement added.
