He stressed that the people of the state were solidly behind President Buhari, adding that other Nigerians should support the administration to bring about the desired change to make Nigeria a better place for all.
The governor noted that the Buhari-led administration had in the last two and a half years addressed problems of security and corruption in the country.
Among those in attendance were All Progressives Congress Chairman in the state, Abdullahi Abbas and Senior Special Assistant to the President on National Assembly Matters, Abdurrahman Kawu-Sumaila.
