Nigerian youths should be patriotic, selfless, says Yobe governor
Governor Mai Mala Buni of Yobe has urged women and youths to be patriotic and selfless for Nigeria’s development, peace and progress.
On Monday, Mr Buni made the call while receiving Buni-Gubana Women and Youth Network, who paid him a courtesy call in Damaturu.
The governor also urged the group to always have the interest of Yobe at heart.
“You are the leaders of tomorrow. You should develop the spirit of patriotism and be selfless to the state and country,” the Yobe governor said.
Mr Buni commended the group for showing love and concern for his government and Yobe.
The group’s coordinator, Mairiga Umar, described the governor as the most youth and women-friendly governor in Nigeria.
She said the essence of creating the network was to appreciate the governor’s gesture to women and youth in the state through dedication and selfless service.
Ms Umar assured Mr Buni that the network would work for his administration’s success.
