Shettima reiterated that his principal, President-elect Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s commitment to the betterment of the populace and the nation, saying power comes from God, and since one would spend more years of one’s life outside power than in power, it was necessary for legacies to be left behind especially with communities as regards leaving them better than they were met.
Speaking against divisive politics, Sen. Shettima harped on the need to embrace one another as brothers and sisters.
He cited how the ‘Nigerian’ candidate won in the most northern of states (Sokoto), and the most Christian State with 90% population of Christians (Benue).
“What binds us together, supersedes what divides us. There is no burden that we carry than the burden of trust,” Shettima stated.
He assured the delegation of efforts to be all inclusive in governance, just as he pleaded that they continued to support Governor Babagana Zulum of Borno State, saying” he is a good man, and everyone should rally round him.”
