“Your Royal Highnesses, my administration recognises the importance of all institutions. The government has given new vehicles to members of the House of Assembly, Commissioners, Security Services, and Chairmen of Boards, Departments and Agencies for optimal operation.
“Today, we are tackling our royal fathers’ transportation problems, because you have been riding in old vehicles.
“Morally speaking, as a government, we know what traditional rulers are doing nationwide in contributing to peace and stability among communities. We must be alert to our responsibility. We uphold the high esteem of traditional institutions as foundation for social cohesion.
“The vehicles presented to the emirs are exactly the same as what the governor is riding. This is to preserve the sanctity of the royal fathers.
“Wherever you go with the vehicles, you will be recognised with honour as first Class Emirs from Kebbi.”
