He commended the Kano State government for listening to the yearnings of the people, and acting to correct the wrongs of the past, and urged the people “to give the Sarki of the ancient city of Kano the maximum support to succeed”. 

The governor also urged the spiritual leader of the Tijanniyah Sufi order of Nigeria, Emir Sanusi, to lead the over 50 million adherents of the Sufi order in Nigeria with love, wisdom and courage while bringing lasting peace, justice, equity and fairness to all in the city of Kano.

He wished the Emir a successful and fruitful reign that will bring progress and prosperity to the people of the State.
