Governor-elect Dikko Radda says his administration will strive to make Katsina safer and secure against bandits and other criminals.
Mr Radda said this assurance in Katsina on Sunday while briefing journalists shortly after the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) declared him the winner of the governorship election.
He said the security of life and property would be paramount to him, and he would proactively endeavour to check the ugly trend of banditry and other crimes.
“We will enhance the economy, educate our children, help the vulnerable, and provide productive public service,” the governor-elect said. “Visionary leadership entails concise, attainable goals, and I believe I can lead a government that can deliver for our people.”
Mr Radda added, “Our youths are our future, and they will become teachers, doctors, engineers, technicians, entrepreneurs, and leaders someday. My commitment to the youth will be unwavering,” and asked God to “grant us victory if we are the best people to govern Katsina state.”
He noted that “as winners of the election, we believe it is now time to give nothing less than our best as a government,” and “as your governor, I will be humble in my dispensation, diligent in my execution, and sincere in my actions.”
The Katsina governor-elect thanked “everyone who participated in our democratic process.”
“To my governor, I say ‘thank you’ and hope to build on what you have achieved,” Mr Radda stated.
He said his vision for Katsina is to build a better future for everyone, saying, “I understand now more than ever that a better future is possible for all. I have toured every part of our dear state and seen the challenges our communities are grappling with.”
He pointed out that his goal is ensuring the government creates the right environment to overcome all challenges, revealing that the team he would form would be diverse, inclusive, and based on merit.
“The youths will be the backbone of our economic growth, and we will support them with all the resources available to actualise their dreams. I seek God’s help in our governance. I also seek the help of every one of you as we embark on our governance project,” stressed Mr Radda.
