The Kano Schools Festival delightfully lauds the foresight and inclusive drive of the President-Elect, Alhaji Asiwaju Bola Ahmad Tinubu for appointing Abdulaziz Abdulaziz as his Special Assistant on Media and Publicity at the critical time of his campaign.
Abdulaziz Abdulaziz, the immediate past Deputy Editor of the Daily Trust Newspapers, has been one of the most generous supporters by sponsoring the Essay Writing Competition Category at the Kano Schools Festival.
Kano Schools Festival is an innovative initiative providing the right platform for Kano Secondary Schools students to excel in academics and discover their full creative potential.
The appointment of Abdulaziz Abdulaziz, a Kano-born multi-award-winning investigative journalist (including the Wole Soyinka Investigative Journalist Award twice), by the president-elect is well deserved, and we, at the Kano Schools Festival commend Alhaji Asiwaju Bola Ahmad Tinubu for making a right choice by bringing in one of Nigeria’s patriotic and brilliant journalists to work with him in pulling Nigeria out of the woods.
Sure, this appointment is a clear testimony that Nigerians have made a wise choice voting in a President who appreciates pluralism and understands not only the significance of unity in diversity, but is ready to strengthen and consolidate it by working with the best and competent Nigerians irrespective of their creed or region.
While we congratulate Abdulaziz Abdulaziz on his appointment, we urge him to work diligently in bestowing the confidence invested in him by the President – Elect in the discharge of his official duties.
