The President’s spokesman, Malam Garba Shehu, in a statement, reported the president as saying that all those that had unleashed mayhem on innocent citizens should reflect on their atrocities, knowing that they soiled their own name and their family’s reputation.
“We are praying that the rainy season will be good for the production of the food we eat in the country.
“Look at when we closed the borders for about two years, a lot of people went back to the farms and they have not regretted that decision. Now we are feeding ourselves and exporting rice.
“My advice is about people that are organising themselves and attacking institutions and communities. The people know them. So let them report them to the security agencies.
“I hope they will sit and reflect and make sure they save their names and their families,” the president said.
At the prayer ground, the Emir of Daura, Dr Faruk Umar Faruk, said the President had represented the Daura Emirate and indigenes well in his service to the nation, upholding his integrity at all times and working for the collective good of all.
The Emir said the community had always been proud of the President, knowing his penchant for fairness, justice and upholding the rule of law.
“No one can accuse him of theft or any form of corruption. We the people of Daura are behind you, Mr President. The work you have done for the community and the country, it is only God that will reward you,” he said. (NAN)
