Congratulations to all Dandalites!

Congratulations to all Dandalites! Once again the Dandalin Siyasa Online Forum has proved to the world that it has finally come of age. It is now established that our great forum is now an institution and which we pray will outlive us and continue to contribute positively for the development and growth of our great country. The aim of this short letter is to apologize to the management and members of Dandalin Siyasa Online Forum my inability to intentionally miss our anniversaries, last year in Dutse and the latest in Gusau. It’s due to reasons many will come to understand in future. For two years before 19-March-2008 I had the idea of starting this great forum, but Allah’s time is the best and I created the forum on the mention date. I did it out of intrest of have such group in the North then. I never knew or predict it will be what is is today, and only Allah knows the greatness it will attain. The Dandalin Siyasa of yesterday is different from how it is today. In the past many regard the forum as my personal belonging, and that may be among the reasons some were against me, but with the present dandali which many I observed regard to “ours” has passed the stage of fighting the “Owner” or plotting against the leadership. With me out of the picture I think those fighting me in the name of dandali have no one to fight or plot against. The Great Dandalin Siyasa Online Forum, am using this channel to officially inform the leadership that I will be attending all Dandalin Siyasa Online Forum Anniversaries Insha Allah as it has been proved that its now an institution not a personal belonging of Chaji or an instrument to be used by him to further any kind of agenda from next year. From numerous comments I read, the youths, elites and even states governments from Northern Nigeria have hope in Dandalin Siyasa. They look toward dandali to provide the agenda for is good governance and democracy all about. Many now believe Dandalin Siyasa can chart the roadmap for growth and development in Northern Nigeria. I will also appeal to leadership of Dandalin Siyasa to be more patience and to also tighten its belt for future challenges as profile and influence of the forum is growing by the day. As humans we are bound to make mistakes and errors and when this happens, we should as usual forgive and forget for interest of our great forum, region and country. Once again a very big thank you to our great Chairman Pharm Hashim Ubale Yusufu, Engr. Sani Umar, Urwatu Bashir Saleh, Barr. Abdullahi Imam, Engr. Muazu Magaji, Nazeer Bello, Hon. Uba Danzainab, Hon. Binta Spikin, Mohammed Alhassan (BBS), Ahmed Salisu (ASI) Dr. Umar Tanko Yakasai, Mohammed Mansur Allawee, Saleh Dakata who all rose to keep the flag of Dandalin Siyasa flying in those trying period. I will remain gratefull to you all forever and continue to pray for your success and protections from all sorts of enemies. History will remember you and our people will continue to respect you forever. Many thanks to Zamfara State Deputy Governor Malam Ibrahim Muhammad Wakkala for all what he did to Dandalin Siyasafor successful 2013 annivesary. May Allah (swt) reward him abundantly and we pray that Governor Abdulazeez Yari will handover to him embracing each other. My appreciation to Engr. Rabiu Suleiman Bichi , SSG to Kano state government for identifying with Dandalin Siyasa, May Allah (swt) reward him abundantly, amen. My appreciations to all members of the Gusau 2003 Organizing committees, all members that attended the anniversary across the country, may Allah reward them abundantly. Once again a very big thank you to you all and I pray that ,all your needs in this world and hereafter will be fulfilled by Allah (swt). Thank You Shehu Mustapha Chaji Founder ( Dandalin Siyasa Online Forum)

Earlier in his speech, the Governor of Kano State, His Excellency Engineer Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, represented by the Secretary to Kano State Government Alhaji Rabiu Suleiman Bichi expressed appreciation in the activities of Dandali On-line forum. He used the opportunity to briefly enumerate some of the achievements of Kano State Government. At the end, the Secretary to the State Government officially tendered the Governor’s request to host next year’s general meeting in 2014. In his remarks, the National Chairman, Dandalin Siyasa On-line Forum, Pharmacist Hashimu Ubale Yusuf traced the historical development of the forum from its inception to the present time. He stated that the first meeting was held in 2009 at Mambayya House, Kano; second meeting took place at Gamji Park, Kaduna; third meeting was in Sokoto, then Dutse in Jigawa State and the fifth in Gusau, Zamfara State. According to him, as at now the forum is blessed with prominent personalities such as the Deputy Governor of Zamfara State and the Secretary to the Kano State Government among many others. The Chairman extended the forum’s appreciation to all members who contributed towards the successful hosting of Gusau 2013 Annual General Meeting. At the end, Hashim Ubale called on the members of the National Assembly to be very cautious in restraining online users to exercise their fundamental human right as enshrined in the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. Presenting his speech, the Governor of Zamfara State Alhaji Abdul-aziz Yari Abubakar who was represented by his Deputy Alhaji Ibrahim Wakkala maintains that the importance of this forum cannot be over-emphasized. He therefore, called on the members of the Dandali Foundation On-line Forum to put more efforts in ensuring that north regain its lost glory. He then highlighted some of the achievements recorded by his administration which include sales of fertilizer at subsidized price; payments of fees for qualifying examinations; feeding pupils in primary and secondary schools; and rehabilitation of both state and federal roads among others. The representative of the Governor then urged members to remain committed, united and resolute in restoration of good governance in Nigerian polity at all times. First paper presentation by Dr Sa’idu Ahmad Dukawa titled “Northern Nigeria and the Discourse on National Conference”. Major points discussed in the paper are: The myriad problems in Nigeria include corruption, insecurity, injustice, lack of infrastructure, and election malpractice among others. Major problems that are so particular in Northern Nigeria are, poverty, educational backwardness, insecurity, and illiteracy. Outlines “SWOT” - (Strength, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats). The analysis is indeed a food for thought for the discussions and strategy of Dandali Group. Inherent contradiction in the idea on the proposed conference by Goodluck Ebele Jonathan whether it is going to be national or sovereign. North is economically disadvantage which is as a result of leadership failure. Suggestions: Need for a collective aspiration and agenda for the region before the national conference North must ensure that the representative to the conference must be by local government not religion, region or ethnic nationalities. North must insist on Federal character before south- south can have 50% of petroleum revenue. Need for Dandali to consult all stakeholders to enlighten them on the disadvantage position of the nation. The presenter is in support of the conference since it is unavoidable. North must participate with collective agenda. Second paper presentation by Nasiru Wada Khalil titled “Virtual Communities of Interest and Political Economy of Nigeria: Remarks on the Role and Outcomes of Hausa Social Networks”. Major points discussed in the paper are: Outline various types of online Hausa social forums The existence of social media, change the people outlook about government and how they relate with their people. The paper traced the history of media usage in northern Nigeria. It explains the role of social media in society such as information sharing, education/indoctrination, means of self expression and a chance for its users to reach out. The paper argues that ethnicity, regionalism, religious differences are the major determinant of online social group members. Policy makers abhor social media because it gives unrestricted means of information gathering and exchange which is the most effective tool in bringing about transparency and accountability. Suggestions: The forum needs to be pro-active The forum needs to be focus and agenda setters for the government. There is also the need for the forum to be watchful of government influence in order to maintain their impartiality, objectivity and independent status. Comments/Contributions/Questions No patriotism in northern Nigeria. People should therefore be patriotic Selfish interest and greediness is one of the major causative agents in poor leadership particularly in northern Nigeria. Northern part is confronted with numerous problems and as such where do we go from here? We should learn how to elect qualitative leaders who would promote our aspirations. The influence of social media cannot be over- emphasized. Apart from information sharing, enlightenment and entertainment, it also contributed immensely in Middle Eastern uprisings. No consensus leader in the whole of Arewa but, with the emergence of Dandali On-line forum, there is hope for Northern Nigeria to regain its lost glory. People in the north should not be afraid to participate at the proposed national conference. People should go with open minds to discuss issues freely. Response by presenters: 1. Dr Saidu Ahmad Dukawa: Shed more light on the abundant natural and human resources endowed in the northern part especially population and economy. Those who want Nigeria to be divided from the north are responding from southern pressure. Northern leaders do not empower people like what previous leaders such as Sardauna did. They don’t want the country to be divided because they want to sustain themselves in power. Ibrahim Babangida, Abacha, Obasanjo did similar exercises to maintain power. The same thing President Ebele Jonathan has embarked upon. 2. Nasir Wada Khalil: Called on members of the forum to be very vigilant on government domination about the activities of the forum and to be wary on the postings of government activities in the forum because of their own interest. We must keep vigilant, focus and maintain our interest. Vote of Thanks Malam Umar Sa’id Tudun Wada urged members to work hard in promoting the activities of the forum. He said the postings on the forum are very encouraging, they indicate that our efforts are not wasteful. He thanked everybody for their resilience and patience throughout today’s deliberations. And this is because of the situation the north and Nigeria has found itself and the need to have solutions to our numerous problems. Lastly the Secretary to the Government of Kano State Alhaji Rabiu Suleiman Bichi said he has listened to all deliberations and he understood them perfectly but, the policy decision Kano has taken over the national dialogue not to participate has been commendable on so many grounds. Namely among which is just a waste of time and resources. Besides, there is scarcity of leadership in the north and also the followers do not believe in the leadership which is supposed to be a mutual trust between the leaders and the followers. The national dialogue has history of dividing Nigerians and the committee itself is led by questionable characters that in their past activities, they were found to have intention of dividing the country in a coup and also the committee is composed of characters that are not patriotic to Nigeria as such Kano would not participate. The South-West also indicated similar concern and General Buhari our leader, has clearly come out criticizing such fora. Other Matters Arising Four additional members were incorporated into the membership of Board of Trustees. These members are: Alhaji Ibrahim Wakkala; Alhaji Rabiu Suleiman Bichi; Senator Isah Yahaya Zarewa; and Malam Ahmed Sajo. The Deputy Governor of Zamfara State led members in prayer for Saleh Dakata who had accident and being hospitalized in Kano. Zamfara State Government is of the opinion that National Conference is not in any way the solution to the numerous national problems. Communiqué on the 5th Anniversary of Dandalin Siyasa On-line Forum, Theme “Northern Drawing Board: Who Leads The Way? Held on 7TH and 8TH December, 2013 at J. B. Yakubu Secretariat, Gusau, Zamfara State. Communiqué: At Dandali 5th anniversary forum tagged “Gusau 2013” held on 7th and 8th December, 2013, major burning national issues were identified and discussed amongst which include: Anti Cyber Proposed bill by the National Assembly; National Conference/ Dialogue and Socio-Economic Challenges bedeviling Northern Nigeria. The forum observed with regret that, the anti-cyber critic Bill, is undemocratic, unconstitutional and outright infringement on people’s fundamental freedom of self expressions in a democratic setting. As such it will and most be resisted by all concerned. On National Conference/Dialogue, the forum believed that it is never a solution to Nigeria’s socio-economic and political crisis, hence, the forum calls on National leaders to rescind the decision and be popular on policies amongst Nigerians. Major Challenges of the North were identified as poverty, lack of education, political rights, Security and Civic Education especially through social media. Other major observations noted are: No patriotism in northern Nigeria. People should therefore be patriotic Selfish interest and greediness is one of the major causative agents in poor leadership particularly in northern Nigeria. Northern part is confronted with numerous challenges, such as its political destiny. There is the need to be decisive. That North should learn how to elect qualitative leaders who would promote their needs and aspirations. The influence of social media cannot be over- emphasized. Apart from information sharing, enlightenment and entertainment, it should also be a veritable instrument of civic education for the average Northerner. No consensus leader in the whole of Arewa but, with the emergence of Dandali on-line forum, there is hope for Northern Nigeria to regain its lost glory. Based on the aforementioned observations, recommends as follows: 1. There is need for the 19 northern states to take pro-active measures in tackling socio-economic problems bedeviling the region. 2. There is need for concerted effort from all and sundry, to find a lasting solution to the lingering and deadly security problems in the region. 3. If the region must attain the up-coming national conference, there is need for the region to go with common sets of agendas. 4. As 2015 general election is approaching, we recommend massive voters education in the region. Civil societies, NGOs and government need to design robust measures in order to enlighten the general public on how to stop rigging and other mal- practices during elections. 5. We also recommend that, National Assembly members from the North must make sure the anti- cyber critic bill is not passed. We believe it is unconstitutional and undemocratic and cannot stand a taste of time. 6. We also urge both the Federal Government and ASUU to quickly resolve their differences so that students can go back to classes. 7. The forum wishes to extent its heartfelt condolence to the people of South African Government and Africa in General over the death of Nelson Mandela. 8. Lastly, the forum is immensely very grateful to the Government and people of Zamfara State for their wonderful reception and hospitality. Dr Usman Muhammad Muhammad Fatuhu Mainasara Yakubu Kurfi (Chairman) (Member) (Secretary)

ADDRESS BY HIS EXCELLENCY, THE EXECUTIVE GOVERNOR OF ZAMFARA STATE, HONOURABLE ABDUL’AZIZ YARI ABUBAKAR, SHATTIMAN MAFARA, MADE AT THE ANNUAL NATIONAL CONFERENCE OF DANDALIN SIYASA ONLINE FORUM, ON FRIDAY 7TH DECEMBER, 2013

ADDRESS BY HIS EXCELLENCY, THE EXECUTIVE GOVERNOR OF ZAMFARA STATE, HONOURABLE ABDUL’AZIZ YARI ABUBAKAR, SHATTIMAN MAFARA, MADE AT THE ANNUAL NATIONAL CONFERENCE OF DANDALIN SIYASA ONLINE FORUM, ON FRIDAY 7TH DECEMBER, 2013 It is a source of pleasure for me to address this gathering of members of the online discussion group of Dandalin Siyasa who are here in Zamfara State for the 2013 annual conference of the group. 2. I understand that this is the 5th conference since the creation of this forum. Over the years, Dandalin Siyasa has provided an invaluable platform for evaluation of public policies and appraisal of day to day operations of governments in Nigeria. It has gained prominence for debating issues of concern to the northern part of the country, where it draws most of its membership, and the country as a whole. 3. I believe this group is driven by the passionate desire of its members for strengthening our democracy and building a prosperous Nigeria which will occupy its proper place on the continent and on the global arena. Gladly, the online activities of forums such as yours have begun to bear fruitful results. Today, more than any other time, our people have embraced the online social media as a means of drawing the attention of governments and policy makers to issues that will strengthen democratic governance and speed up development. I must therefore commend the foresight of the founding fathers of this group, Malam Shehu Mustapha Chaji along with his committed friends, which led to the formation of the group. It is my hope that it will continue to inspire leaders at different levels to be more committed to issues of development and inject in the youths who are expected to assume greater leadership responsibilities in the future skills that will help them develop a clear vision for their communities and the country. 4. I would like to call on the group to concentrate more efforts in propagating those values that would facilitate the reawakening of the north so as to regain its lost glory. There is no better time for this than now, considering the clamour from various quarters for re-evaluation of our federal system. We in the north cannot and will not play a second fiddle in the Nigerian federation. If we are to restore the glory of the region we must have a united front on crucial issues like the proposed National Conference irrespective of party, ethnic and religious differences. 5. We in Zamfara State are of the opinion that the proposed National Conference is not a panacea to the myriad of problems bedevilling our polity. We don’t need a National Conference to address the problem of acute shortage of electricity; We don’t need such conference to address the lingering crisis in our education sector. We don’t need the conference to address the nagging issue of security across the federation. A conference need not be held before we could tackle the issue of corruption in this country. We also don’t need a conference to address the issue of organised oil theft. We in fact don’t need a conference before we realise the need to be fair and transparent in sharing the revenues accruing to the Federation Account. We already have a democratic constitution and democratically elected leaders in place. 6. All we need in this country is for the leadership to be purposeful and fully alive to its responsibilities. All we need is to abide by the rules of the game; respect the provisions of the constitution and always be mindful of the fact that we are servants of our people and not their overlords. 7. As you are holding this event here in Zamfara State, it will not be out of place for me to recount to you some of the modest achievements recorded by our administration within the past two and a half years. The reason for our emphasis on provision of infrastructure is the fact that Zamfara State is basically a rural state which needs to be opened up for wider development opportunities through the provision of infrastructure. In addition to the colossal investment made by the government in roads construction, modest achievements have equally been recorded in education, health, water supply and agriculture: Zamfara State is the only state throughout the federation that sells fertilizers at a heavily subsidised rate of N1000 per bag. This policy started from the inception of our administration and we intend to sustain it throughout our tenure; Every year, the State Government spends over N400 million for payment of NECO and WAEC examination fees for all final year secondary school students of the state; In addition to completion of construction of hostels and classrooms which we inherited from the immediate past administration, our administration has rehabilitated all boarding secondary schools under the Ministry of Education and provided beds, chairs and mattresses for the students; The State Government spends an average of 188 million naira monthly for feeding of pupils and students across the state. This is in addition to provision of an average of ten thousand bags of assorted grains every month for schools; We have completed the construction of the multi million naira Yariman Bakura Specialist Hospital, Gusau; We have upgraded some Primary Health Centres across the state to the status of General Hospitals. This is in addition to construction of additional structures for the hospitals at Maru, Talata Mafara and Bakura; Our administration has rehabilitated some federal roads stretching over 222.5 kilometres across the state within the past 2 years. These roads are: Mayanchi- Anka- Daki Takwas- Gummi to Sokoto border; Gusau- Kasuwar Daji- Kaura Namoda- Dauran- Zurmi- Gidan Jaja We have constructed a number of road networks across the state: 75.9 kilometre Wanke- Danjibga- Kucheri road; 128 kilometre Magami- Dan Gulbi- Dan Kurmi- Sabon Birni- Bagega- Anka road; 75 kilometre Talata Mafara- Rini- Janbako- Boko road; 42 kilometre Tashar Awwali- Kagara- Garbadu- Sauna- Talata Mafara road; 11 Kilometre, Yandoto- Shemori- Mada road; 14.5 Gummi -Fass road; 33.5 Gummi- Gyalange- Bardoki- Gayari; Equally, under the State and Local Governments Joint Account we have embarked upon the construction of township roads across all the 14 Local Government Areas of the state. A minimum of 20 kilometres would be constructed in each Local Government. This is in addition to the urban roads already executed in Gusau and Talata Mafara. 8. Before I conclude, I would like to call on you to remain committed to your mission of bringing about social change through online activities. You should use this conference as a platform to further cement your solidarity and renew your commitment to carry on with this all important social calling. I would also like to assure you of the support of Zamfara State Government in the pursuance of your objective of promoting good governance at all times. 9. It is now my pleasure to declare this 5th National Annual Conference of Dandalin Siyasa online forum open. I wish you successful deliberations and God’s guidance throughout. 10. Thank you and wassalamu Alaikum. December 7, 2013 i

‘Gusau is Trouping’ as the Dandalin Siyasa 5th Anniversary Activities begins today

‘Gusau is Trouping’ as the Dandalin Siyasa 5th Anniversary Activities begins today By Muhammad Sani Dandalin Siyasa Online is the first ever online political discussion forum in the Nothern Nigeria which was established on Yahoo Groups in the year 2008 by Comrade Shehu Mustapha Chaji who was for a very long time thinking a way to re-orient the Youth in our society about the true leadership. The first anniversay of Dandalin Siyaya took place in Kano in the year 2009, it was indeed a memorable event which later became a kind of general assembly, because faces has met faces; the names that people have been reading in your emails for long time now you meet in reality, that was what creates alot of enthusiasm among the members to continue the battle. However, the subsequent events in Kaduna, Sokoto and Dutse in 2010, 2011 and 2012 resepctively, were also very much encouraging due to the increasing membership and the callibre of membership which includes former Governors, Ministers, Commissioners, Politicians, Professions, Academicians and what you can not even think of; having these kind of individuals in a Forum generate alot of intellectual debates which affects the political development of the Country. The Gusau event as we are about to witness would greatly follow the trend, though when the Central Organising Committe went for a courtesy visit under the leadership of Barrister Abdullahi Imam to His Excellency the Deputy Governor of Zamfara State Malam Ibrahim Wakkala who has was an actiive member of Dandalin Siyasa Online has stated that” Insha Allah the Gusau 2013 as the event was tagged would be the best ever Dandalin Siyasa event”. The Speaker of the House of Representatives Alh. Aminu Waziri Tambuwal beside other numerous dignitaries are expected to grace the occation which includes: Garkuwan Sokoto Alh. Attahiru Bafarawa, Senator Isa Yahaya Zarewa, Alh. Rabi’u Sulaiman Bichi. Taskira,com would broadcats the event LIVE as it happens. Culled from Taskira.com

Address by Engr. Rabiu Suleiman Bichi , SSG Kano State Goverment at Dandalin Siyasa AGM at Gusau, 2013

ADDRESS BY THE SECRETARY TO THE KANO STATE GOVERNMENT AT THE 2013 ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING OF DANDALIN SIYASA HELD AT GUSAU, ZAMFARA STATE ON SATURDAY 7TH DECEMBER 2013. COURTESIES In the name of Allah, the compassionate and the merciful. May His blessings be upon our exalted Prophet Muhammad, SAW. I am delighted to have the opportunity to represent His Excellency Gov. Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso of Kano State at the Annual General Meeting of one of the most important social media forum of our time, the Dandalin Siyasa. I am delighted to be among this gathering, more so because it signifies our part of the world has accepted the current trend, which involves converging online to deliberate and define What could be beneficial to us, what challenges us, how it could be remedied and all other benefits that could be derived there from. This anniversary is a proof of how far we have come in that respect. I am honored to be part of this board and will try to steer the course of this forum in the right direction, as one of its board of trustees members. The Dandalin Siyasa as an important medium of mass communication has indeed come of age and has remained one of the best veritable mechanisms of appraising the State and its instruments, the Society and happenings within it as well as the economy and its dynamics. It is in fact a source of guidance and insight to policy makers, politicians, administrators and statesmen who, in their quest and determination to serve their people in the best of ways, believe in the need for feed back or objective assessment of their actions, decisions or policies. In Kano State the administration of Gov. Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso is premised upon the principle of serving the people credibly and to develop Kano State in all sectors. Being a cosmopolitan State and the most populous in the Nigerian Federation, the need of concerted and well informed approach to development is of paramount significance to the administration. We evolved mechanisms of measuring the pulse of the society in terms of the needs and requirements of citizens, their state of appreciation of government’s decisions, programs and policies and their views on how they should be governed. One of our sources of credible input in decision making is Dandalin Siyasa and of course other online social media forum. The objective assessment and the quality of contributions and commentaries by participants, their objective disposition to matters bordering on the overall common good and above all, the level of intelligence of the participants, which in our judgment, is exemplary, encourages us to from time to time, adopt some of the advises and positive criticism in implementing some of our programs. It will suffice to illustrate this point by making a reference to a particular episode involving the conduct of a Judicial Officer in Kano State who misappropriated the estate of a deceased to the detriment of heirs. Our administration monitored the commentaries on Dandalin Siyasa and pursued the matter appropriately to logical conclusion. Dandalin Siyasa is arguably a very important social media network committed to the development of the Nigerian State, particularly the northern part of the country renowned to have an excellent history of politics, administration, trade and commerce as well educational scholarship. The administration of Kwankwasiyya under Gov Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso which you coined RMK, is one of the state that runs the most transparent Government in the country. This can be attested to by the way and manner that all Government policies and decisions are published online and in national dailies as well as archiving such meetings on our website. In addition we have carried out biometric data on all civil servants including local Governments and judiciary. Kano state is also the first state that has introduced e-payment on all government transactions, and consistently enforce it. You may recall that even the CBN recognized and give the Governor an ward for this. Our government has taken education seriously. In fact our investment in education has consistently surpassed the Unesco recommend figure of 26% appropriation in the budget size to 31% for the last 2 years. Apart from the infrastructural development in the sector over 2000 students have been sponsored for both undergraduate and postgraduate studies at home and overseas. In the field of empowerment over 300,000 women and youth have so far benefitted directly from government programs under CRC, Lafiya Jari, and the 23 skills acquisition and capacity building institutes. Statistics have shown that this translates to 3million job creation. On infrastructure work on the famous wuju wuju and Sabon Gari flyover bridge which were recently awarded has started, in addition to the expansion of the 5 major entry roads into Kano, the flyover at silver jubilee roundabout, interlock paving of all our streets, traffic and street lights as well as the 5 km dualised roads in all the 44 local governments areas. Time will not permit me to recall all our achievements in the last 2 and half years, but those who leave or visit Kano will attest to the transformation going on. The ongoing construction works at Kwankwasiyya, Amana and Bandirawo cities is approaching completion. Permit me to however, observe that not all the commentaries and opinions expressed by participants are objective and well informed. Social commentary that is solely based on views and analysis from the standpoint of the observer, are often times subjective and sentimental. The process of governance and the art of politics and administration require in-depth participatory observance or meticulous scientific research in order to enable one unravel the dynamics of governance, politics and administration. The study of the environment is central and critical to understanding the complexity of politics and governance. Statesmen and administrators are guided by certain codes for their official conducts. They operate within the ambit of the laws of the society, which could rather be termed operational constraints or overriding public interest. What could ordinarily be considered to be in the interest of the citizens if put forward may, from the point of view of the law, be illegal to uphold. It is in this light that I want to ardently implore upon the multitude of our intelligent participants and commentators to strive to strike needed delicate balance between discerned societal needs and requirements on the hand and the provisions of the law pertaining to the leverage and limits of statesmen and administrators. It is imperative to stress that while it is obligatory for leaders to meet the yearnings and aspirations of citizens, it should equally be appreciated that such needs can only be accommodated in accordance with societal laws and in some cases, its norms and values and often times, in line with the overall public interest and available resources. The need for objective assessment of situations and the postulation of recommendations is thus of paramount significance on the part of social media commentators, especially those participating in Dandalin Siyasa. Finally, I want to restate my sincere gratitude to Dandalin Siyasa for the honor done to me and to my State, Kano. I pledge my support to the course and my commitment to the development to the network towards strengthening it into a strong and veritable source of credible information and data that will guide statesmen, policy makers and administrators in their efforts at charting effective road maps for the development of their respective domains. While appreciating what happened in Gusau, you will like this gathering to be jn Kano at the next anniversary, to show case the effort of this government in rebranding kano, and charting for it anew course. I extend the goodwill of His Excellency the Executive Governor of Kano State to this esteemed gathering as I request this AGM to grant my state the hosting right of next year's AGM (ISA). Thank you and God bless.
