Rivers State Governor, Chief Nyesom Wike has been honoured as the Jagoran Bauchi (Leader of Bauchi) by the Emir of Bauchi, Dr. Rilwan Sulaiman Adamu.
Wike, who was in Bauchi State on January 1, 2022, to pay a New Year visit to the state Governor, Senator Bala Mohammed, also visited the Palace of the Emir to pay homage to the emir.
While at the Government House, Bauchi, Wike described the Bauchi State governor as an unpretentious true friend who keeps not just his word but also his commitments.
The Rivers State governor urged the people of Bauchi to remain focused as there was hope for Nigeria to be rescued in 2023.
He said Nigeria was presently plagued with a weak and bad leadership, saying that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) was set to provide a level playing field for good leadership to emerge in the country in 2023.
In his remarks, the Bauchi State Governor, Senator Bala Mohammed described Wike as the face of the PDP, and the emerging leader of Nigeria.
Mohammed expressed appreciation to Wike for his courage, forthrightness and capacity to say things as they are.
After the courtesy visit to Government House, the governor, then, proceeded to pay homage to the Emir of Bauchi, Dr. Rilwan Sulaiman Adamu at his palace in the state capital.
During the visit to the palace, Adamu honoured Wike with the title of ‘Jagoran Bauchi’, meaning Leader of Bauchi.
He said that the Rivers State governor was deserving of the honour because of his untiring efforts to unite the nation and promote democracy in the country, saying that his boldness, frankness, and thoughtfulness were qualities needed now of many politicians to bring Nigeria out of the woods, and take democracy in the country to greater heights.
