Stakeholders of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Kano North Senatorial District have hailed the Deputy President of the Senate, Senator Barau I. Jibrin, describing him as an exceptional lawmaker and leader.
The party leaders led by their chairman, Hon. Sani Mukaddas paid the Deputy Senate President a courtesy call on Monday at the Senate, Abuja. Senator Barau represents Kano North Senatorial District.
Mukaddas told the lawmaker that his performance as a senator representing Kano North from 2015 to date has been outstanding and impressive.
“The projects you have provided across the 13 local government areas of our senatorial district, Kano North are evidence of your outstanding performance. We are grateful,” the party leader said.
He said the party leadership was not surprised when Senator Barau emerged as the Deputy President of the Senate on June 13, this year, unopposed.
“We are not surprised when you emerged as the Deputy President of the Senate unopposed. This shows you have the support of your colleagues. We are also with you 100 percent and we are proud of you. You have impacted positively on every household in our senatorial district,” he said.
The party leader also hailed the emergence of the former governor of Kano State, Dr Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, as the National Chairman of the APC. Ganduje is also from Kano North.
Responding, the Deputy President of the Senate thanked the party leaders for their support, assuring them that, ‘’I will not let you down’’.
