Kwara State Governor, Dr Abdulfatah Ahmed has described the resolution of the Nigeria Governors’ Forum and the election of a new leadership for the body as a victory for democracy.
Ahmed made this assertion in a congratulatory message to the new Chairman of the forum and Zamfara State Governor, Alhaji Abdulaziz Yari and the new Chairman of Northern Governors’ Forum, Alhaji Kashim Shettima who is also the Governor of Borno State.
The Governor noted that Nigeria governors have displayed high level of political maturity in resolving the crisis which almost set the body into irrelevance in the national politics.
In release by his Chief Press Secretary, Abdulwahaab Oba, the Governor said with these elections and peaceful resolution of the needless polarisation of the body, the NGF has now reposition itself for the immeasurable benefits of a peer review body.
He therefore charged his colleagues to remain focused in sustaining the ideals which gave birth to the union for it to remain as the baston of good governance and leadership in the country.
