Senator Abdulaziz Yari representing Zamfara West in the Senate, has charged the minister-nominee from the state, Bello Matawalle, to be a worthy representative of the state and Nigeria.
Yari made the call on Thursday in Abuja when he paid a congratulatory visit to Matawalle.
He explained that President Bola Tinubu’s choice of Matawalle was the right decision for Zamfara, and a fulfilment of promise made.
“We tried everything justly possible to see to the emergence of Matawalle for his second term in office but God in His wisdom had other plans for him, which we didn’t know.
“Now he is going to have a larger responsibility of serving the whole country and we are here today to congratulate and pray for him to be successful in the discharge of the new national assignment he will take.
“We also wish to thank and commend our President and to assure him that Zamfara people will always be behind him as he strives to make Nigeria stronger again,” Yari said.
Responding, the minister-nominee thanked the senator for the solidarity visit and promised to do his best wherever he found himself to make Nigeria better.
“What the Tinubu-led administration now needs is the collective support and prayers from Nigerians for him to succeed and we should do that for him.
“On my part, I remain grateful to his excellency, former governor Abdulaziz Yari for his steadfastness, resilience and I want to assure you that we will continue to join hands together for the improvement of our state and the welfare of our people.
“I will remain committed to the Nigerian project under the leadership of our amiable President to rebuild Nigeria,” Matawalle said. (NAN)
