Quotes
"I'm committed to good governance and democracy. My strong conviction is that good governance is only possible with the support of the people. After all, democracy is the government of the people, by the people, and for the people. So our policies are centered on the people. Everything we have been doing is for the citizenry. Free Education Policy for instance is to open up the space so that every child can access qualitative education that will release their potential. We are building people and re-energizing the state. Every policy comes with its own challenge but we keep improving on it with good leadership and technology. Free Education at the lower levels is complemented by slashed tuition fees at the tertiary level. This has greatly cushioned the effect of the current economic downturn as wards and parents are really grateful. Leadership exists for this kind of thing: improving the lives of people..
In today's interconnected world, no country can succeed in isolation without collaboration and partnership between nations. This conference (Munich Security Conference) provides a platform to strengthen those bonds and explore new opportunities for mutual growth. Nigeria, as one of Africa's largest economies, is rich with potential, and the government is actively implementing policies designed to attract foreign investment. By deepening our understanding of global economic trends and fostering stronger international cooperation, we can craft policies that not only align with global standards but also drive sustainable economic growth for all involved.
This is an event where all Margi nations come together to look at where they are coming from, where they are, and where they will be going.

The only reason why we have disagreements is because I decided to move to the All Progressives Congress. But I know that at the end of the day, he will reason with me that my decision is in the interest of my people. I wish you all the best.
The progress made by this administration in restoring stability can not be undermine by anybody, we know the supreme prize we have paid to restore peace in the state, both the security agencies, the traditional rulers and even at individual levels to restore peace in Taraba state.
Any attempt by anybody to disrupt public peace or the executive order to undermine the state’s peace would not be tolerated.”
So, that’s why we are trying to discuss, to deliberate, to find a way on how to make things work without problems, just like the way we did the congresses and the convention.
Our meeting with Mr. President was to make sure that we have a system that is people-oriented. To have a system that will work. And we don’t want to overheat the system.
Some of them its only when election is coming to you will see them around.
Our state must take its rightful place in national development, and that can only happen when we work hand in hand with the centre.’
