Sokoto State Governor, Ahmed Aliyu, has pledged to maintain an open, transparent, and inclusive government that respects the views and aspirations of all citizens.
This commitment is part of his efforts to promote unity and sustainable development in the state.
Governor Aliyu made this declaration when he received the State Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Haruna S. Adiya, and party members during this year’s Eid el-Fitr Sallah celebration at the Banquet Hall, Presidential Lodge, Government House, Sokoto.
The governor emphasised that his administration remains committed to involving every segment of society in the decision-making process, noting that inclusive governance is key to achieving lasting peace and progress.

He added that deliberate efforts are being made to enhance public service delivery and strengthen institutions across the state.
He noted that Sokoto’s position as the Seat of the Caliphate places a responsibility on the government to uphold its legacy of justice, peace, and moral leadership.
Governor Aliyu called on citizens to sustain the values imbibed during Ramadan, including patience, sacrifice, and compassion, stressing that these virtues are essential for building a harmonious and progressive society.
He prayed for continued peace, stability, and prosperity in Sokoto State and Nigeria.
