According to him, he was at his country home to meet with some of his political associates.
He praised the journalists, saying that the correspondents chapel of the Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ) state council and his administration had a good working relationship while he was governor.
“I am a grassroots politician, not a politician from Abuja or Kaduna.” “I always come to Zamfara State to conduct all of my political activities because Zamfara State has always been my immediate constituency,” he explained.
He advised journalists to always double-check their reports before going public in order to avoid embarrassment or spreading false information.
