Maitama Sule, Sanusi urge leaders to rule well

- From Yusha’u A. Ibrahim, Kano

Elder statesman and the Danmasanin Kano, Alhaji Yusuf Maitama Sule, has urged leaders in the country to desist from politics of vengeance and vendetta.

Speaking on the 100 days anniversar­y of Kano State Governor, Dr. Abdullahi Umar Ganduje’s administra­tion yesterday, Sule warned that leaders should not wash their dirty linens in the public, but choose a better way of correcting one another.

He said: “We should better tell one another the truth among ourselves and not destroy one another in public. Two wrongs do not make a right.”

Sule also charged leaders to be just in dealing with their subjects, saying the success of any government is in Justice.

“Justice is the secret of any government. Justice should be done to whosoever deserves it. If there is justice, there will be peace and if there is peace there will be progress and if there is progress, people will be empowered and employed”, he added.

The state governor, Dr. Abdullahi Umar Gnaduje, who reviewed some of his achievemen­ts in the 100 days, reiterated the determinat­ion of the present administra­tion on continuity.

He said the committee set up by the administra­tion to examine all uncomplete­d projects had completed work and submitted the report to the government.

Ganduje said all projects started by the former administra­tion would be completed adding that already, contractor­s had returned to the sites of some of the projects.

He said: “So far roads started by the administra­tion have completed and ready commission­ing.”

The emir of Kano, Alhaji Muhammadu Sunusi ll, charged leaders to always fear God in their dealings with people, saying “we have very limited time, four or eight years will soon pass and therefore we should try and do the right thing to our people as leaders.”
