“We in Bauchi State are very fortunate with the APC-led federal government. We have two key ministers in the Ministry of Health and Social Welfare, as well as Foreign Affairs, occupied by two personalities from the state, my younger brothers, Professor Muhammad Ali Pate and Ambassador Yusuf Maitama Tuggar. They are both doing well,” the governor said.
He explained, “Though we belong to different political parties, we are working together for the good of the entire state. That is the beauty of politics and the essence of democracy and democratic governance.”
