The Sardauna of Ikulu , Alhaji Ismail Yusuf Ashafa has met with hundreds of supporters and party loyalists in Zaria to discuss the Senator Uba Sani agenda for 2023.
Among those present at the gathering were Aliyu Sa’idu, the pioneer DG KADCHMA; Barr. Aysha Ahmad Muhammad , Legal Adviser for KADIRS; Rt. Hon. Aminu Abdullahi Shagali , S.A Political Affairs to the Governor of Kaduna State and council chairmen from zone A.
The gathering was organized to celebrate Senator Uba's emergence as the APC’s flagbearer in the state and to delibrate on key agenda formation for a new Kaduna under our indefatigable leader, the incoming governor by the grace of God.
In his address, Sardauna who was a guest at the retreat said : "I am delighted to be in the midst of young and highly respected Nigerians of your calibre today for this great occasion of Agenda Formulation and Strategy for Distinguished Senator Uba Sani, governorship candidate of the All Progressive Congress (APC) for Kaduna State.
" At the onset, I would like to begin by thanking the Chairman and members of the Organizing Committee of *UBASANIAGENDA’23* for finding me worthy of being selected as the Special Quest of Honour for this important gathering. It is indeed a pleasure to be here and participate as one of the pillars of the occasion. I feel truly honoured, not just because I am speaking as a guest of honour, but because of the personality of the man for whom we are gathered today. Indeed, speaking as a guest of honour in an occasion where the subject is distinguished Senator Uba Sani is a great privilege. Thank you most sincerely.
". I wish to state that the good people of Kaduna State, regardless of creed, tribe or religion has every reason to gather and celebrate the emergence of a charismatic and enterprising leader in person of Sen. Uba Sani as the governorship candidate of the All Progressive Congress (APC). But beyond gathering here to celebrate his emergence as our party’s flagbearer, I am happy to say that this occasion is also meant to deliberate on key agenda formation for a new Kaduna under our indefatigable leader, the incoming governor by the grace of God.
"Uba Sani is a true nationalist, a patriotic Nigerian who always puts his people and the nation first. He is one of the stabilising voices we have today in our dear State. This, he has demonstrated in a number of times through his quality representation and strategic leadership skills. But, the one that stand out and will continue to echoes in the hearts and minds of the people is his numerous interventions and grants as a lawmaker and senator representing Kaduna Central Senatorial Zone. He is a unique leader who was never intoxicated by the privileges of the office he occupies.
" Rather, he always use his position in uplifting the lives of the people of his constituency. This form part of his astonishing qualities that will be sustained if we troop out and vote for him as the next governor of Kaduna State. It also explain why he is the most credible candidate we can trust with our votes.
"I can assure you that Distinguished Senator Uba Sani as a man of wisdom he is, has full knowledge of the challenges ahead of this exalted office he is vying. He is already fully prepared to accept this mandate with every sense of responsibility to take this state to the greater level. He is the only candidate that will build on the legacies of His Excellency, Mallam Nasir Ahmad El-Rufa'i, this is why his campaign slogan has always been ‘Consolidation and Continuity’ because the good people of this State will certainly not welcome anything below the benchmark set by Gov. El-Rufa’i’s tenure.
"While I declare the floor open for the commencement of this great occasion, I would also like to thank the government of Kaduna State under the leadership of Gov. Ahmad El-Rufa'i for its great foresight in discovering the great potentials of Sen. Uba Sani and for ensuring that the best man has been chosen to lead us in the next dispensation under this formidable party, APC.
I therefore warmly welcome you all and pray that the occasion will be successful from start to end."
