The Minister of State for Defence, Dr. Bello Mohammad Matawalle, has expressed confidence that the administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu will significantly enhance the economies of Zamfara State and Nigeria as a whole.
The Minister and former Governor of Zamfara who is on a five day visit to his home state commended President Tinubu for his unprecedented support for Local Government Councils and state governments.
"No previous administration has demonstrated such a strong commitment to developing local councils and states as President Tinubu.
"President Tinubu has allocated substantial funds to states and local government councils, enabling them to undertake impactful development projects,” he added.
Matawalle stated the President’s role as a grassroots mobilizer, emphasizing his passion for local development.
The minister urged party supporters to collaborate with their leaders to reclaim the lost mandate from the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Zamfara State. “It is essential for all APC members to remain law-abiding citizens,” he added.
Matawalle reassured the supporters of the federal government’s ongoing efforts to combat banditry and terrorism in the region. “With the federal government’s initiatives to address security challenges, we will soon experience a renewed sense of safety and peace,” he emphasized.
He urged the community to continue supporting the government at all levels. “Together, we can restore peace and order in our country,” Matawalle added
