The most widely read newspaper in Nigeria
He said, “I worked with three different military administrators. Unfortunately, all of them are late now. I maintain a good relationship with their families, all of them. And a living example is the one from here, Gen. Oneya. I maintain a good relationship with the son up till now.
“Late Gen. Oneya and late General Obada were my mentors. General Obada was the Minister of Works under Shehu Yar’Adua when he was head of state. To keep the relationship up to date, I appointed the son of the late administrator as my senior special assistant. And later to take the relationship to a higher level, I promoted him to special adviser in charge of Lagos affairs. So your royal majesty, you can see how Nigeria can be promoted for national integration.
“On behalf of myself, my wife and the entire people of Kano State, we are very grateful for this coronation. I am happy that the interpretation of the title is ‘let us work together.’ As far as I am concerned, it naturally means that ‘Nigerians are together as one.’ “It is natural in me that Nigerians must work together. We should be able to manage our differences to make us great because our differences are sources of our strength. Every ethnic nationality in Nigeria has got inherent personality if properly harnessed and this will lead to a great nation.”
Governor Ganduje maintained that the title conferment on him by the Delta monarch had taken national integration to a higher level, adding that it was important for Nigerians to believe and trust one another irrespective of religious differences and ethnic or geographic locations.All rights reserved.
