Hajara Wanka stressed that “I made bold to say that more of such awards will be coming your way before the exit of your administration resulting from your leadership style and people oriented policies and programmes that can best be described as “all encompassing.”
She further stated that the Ministry of Humanitarian Affairs and Disaster Management will continue to tow the line of Governor Bala Mohammed’s policy of social inclusion, providing succour to people and mitigating disasters to the barest minimum in the state.
