Emir of Kano tasks elected political leaders on governance

Emir of Kano, Mallam Muhammadu Sanusi II, has tasked political leaders to put the interest of the people above their interests.
The monarch made the call when he paid a congratulatory visit to the Governor of Kano State and senator–elect for Kano Central Zone, Rabi’u Kwankwaso, at the Government House in Kano.

He stated that leaders were elected to serve their people, protect their interests and promote their welfare, stressing that ideally, political leaders were servants of the people, who gave them the mandate through the ballot box.
Mallam Sanusi 11 said while people had the right to vote for candidates of their choice, the elected leaders should justify the mandate by being honest and committed to the socio-economic changes promised to the people during their campaigns...expdonaloaded.blogspot.com
He appealed to Governor Kwankwaso, as senator-elect, and other legislators-elect from Kano to make legislative presentations that would be in the best interest of Nigerians, especially Kano citizens.
Responding, Kwankwaso said Nigerians, irrespective of their differences, should regard the victory recorded by the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the recent polls as a victory for all.
