…Nasarawa Speaker felicitates with Sardauna Gwandara worldwide, Sarkin Dawaki Mai-Tutan Lafia…
Speaker Nasarawa State House of Assembly, Alh Ibrahim Balarabe Abdullahi, has felicitated and acknowledged the giant contributions of former Governor of the State, and Senator representing Nasarawa South, Umaru Tanko Al-makura, as he clocks 69 years today, Monday.
A statement by Press Secretary to the Speaker, Jibrin Gwamna, quoting the Speaker Balarabe Abdullahi, poured encomiums on Senator Tanko Almakura, describing the former governor as “a completely detribalised Nigerian.
He said Senator Al-makura was not only a role model, but a top-notched political icon of the famed Congress for Progressive Change, CPC, that was appreciably transformed to today’s ruling All Progressive Congress, APC, in Nigeria.”
The State Number Three Citizen, who was exhilarated by contributions of the former Governor of the state, said Senator Al-makura remains the of modern Nasarawa State.
“He has written his name in Gold in the annals of the history of Nasarawa State”
According to the Speaker, the record established in 8years by Al-makura as a Governor speaks volumes and will continue to stand tall and bold in the space of time.
Speaker Balarabe Abdullahi also described Al-makura as an exceptional leader per excellence, who is good at turning any enterprise into a positively better conglomerate.
He therefore prayed God to give him more strength, long and healthier life as well as thorough vision in the political landscape, particularly in his struggles to clinch the highest party position of the ruling APC party.
