As contained in a statement released by his Director General of the Press and Media Affairs, Mamman Mohammed, commemorating Democracy Day in Nigeria, Governor Buni noted that the people’s support has undoubtedly strengthened democracy in the state.

He emphasised the importance of youth participation in politics and governance, saying it holds the key to a prosperous future for the state and country.
