Katsina State Governor Aminu Masari, whose state is battling bandits, said education is the panacea to criminality and killings.
He lamented that 87 per cent of poverty in Nigeria is in the north with millions of children out of school. He said nine states in the North contribute almost 50 per cent of the entire malnutrition burden in Nigeria. “There is drug problem, Almajiri problem and Boko Haram problem in the North.” “So, we wish Nasir a happy birthday, but we do not want him to be happy as a leader. Because you are happy when you think you have reached a state of delivering and taking your people to where you want them to be.
“The reason that people like Nasir stand up and they are nationalists is that, they don’t have any sense of inadequacy. You don’t need to rise on being from Kaduna State or being from the North or being a Muslim to get a job, you come with your credentials, you go with your competence, you can compete with any Nigerian from anywhere.
“We have just heard how he has developed himself over the years, he is a surveyor, he is a lawyer, he has got Masters degrees, he has had over 80 certificates from Havard, because education is what makes a man.
