Governor

Kebbi State Governor, Senator Abubakar Atiku Bagudu, has extolled the existing robust bilateral relations between Nigeria and USA, just as he sought for more support from that country .

Bagudu spoke on Wednesday , in Birnin Kebbi, when the US Ambassador to Nigeria, Mary Beth Leonard, paid him a courtesy call.

The Chairman of the Progressive Governors' Forum, who expressed gratitude for the visit said :" I am appreciative of the sound relationship between Nigeria and the US, in all the areas of cooperation.

The Progressive Governors Forum (PGF) has been following unfolding development between Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) and Kaduna State Government over the issue of rightsizing Local Government employees with deep concerns. Noting all the challenges facing all our states, especially given dwindling revenue, we appeal to all patriotic Nigerians, including the NLC, to demonstrate more commitment toward engaging governments at all levels to address problems. This is not the time for muscle flexing.
