The chairman said: “If you haven’t visited Kebbi in the last one or two years, if you come today, you will never believe what your eyes are seeing.
“His Excellency, Kauran Gwandu runs an open and inclusive government. He wants everybody to enjoy the fruits of democracy, that’s why he always tells his appointees to exhibit the habit of free will gift.
“On several occasions, our amiable governor is saying to allow the dividends of democracy to filter down to the public.”
