Gov. Buni presenting a Sword of Honoor to Hon Min State works & Housing Engr Aliyu during the grand State reception in his honor with the senate president, Ahmed Lawan in Damaturu. |
Engr. Aliyu
is the immediate past Deputy Governor of Yobe State.
He became
the deputy governor of the state following the death of his elder brother, Late
Sen. Mamman Ali who died in 2009 and his subsequent appointment by then Deputy Gov.
Ibrahim Gaidam who constitutionally ascended the seat of the governor after the
demise of his principal.
Engr. Aliyu
whom many believed would have naturally succeeded his principal Gov. Ibrahim
Gaidam due to his flagship loyalty throughout his ten years stewardship was
even denied a senatorial seat after he was even screened as a candidate due to
intriguing internal party horse-trading.
The former
deputy Governor in the thicket of all these storms never complained nor
revolted against the party leadership in the state which his boss, Ibrahim Gaidam
was in charge. His eventual nomination as minister and conformation is still
shrouded with some un-answered questions as to who played the human role of his
appointment aprat from the divine hand of God.
Expressing his gratitude to Gov. Mai Mala Buni and the people of the
state, Engr. Aliyu wrote on his Facebook Page https://web.facebook.com/EngrAbubakarDAliyuFnse/ “Yesterday will forever remain a memorable day in
the history of Yobe State as myself and the President of the 9th Senate, Dr.
Ahmad I. Lawan, CON were hosted to a Grand Reception by The Governor of Yobe
State, Hon. Mai Mala Buni on behalf of entire Yobeans. Thank You Yobe State
Government and all the good people of Yobe. We are sincerely grateful, the
minister said.
Our
Correspondent who monitored the event reports that the two Honourees were
presented with a Sword of Honor as a symbol that as
warriors from Yobe State, they will continue to fight towards improving the
lives of the people of this country.
