Bade, local government chairman, prays for Governor Buni
By Yahaya Wakili
The Executive Chairman of the Bade local government council, Yobe State, Hon. Ibrahim Babagana, has said the entire people of Bade local government will continue to pray to Allah (SWT) to reward His Excellency, the Executive Governor of Yobe State, Hon. Mai Mala Buni CON (Chiroman Gujba), with Aljannatul Firdaus.
Ibrahim Babagana revealed this to newsmen shortly after the end of the durbar at the emir’s palace at Gashua, the headquarters of the local government council.
He said, We, the entire people of Bade, don’t have anything to tell Chiroman Gujba except to thank him. God reward him and all that a leader is supposed to do for his people. Governor Mai Mala Buni has done for us. He said, first, if you look at roads, the Buni administration has linked all our communities with roads. If you come to market, we have a market even in the northeast; we are proud of it. Nowhere has a standard market like us.

“If we come to primary health care, there is no village or town in Bade local government that doesn’t have a health center, doesn’t have facilities, staff, and even wards; any ward has facilities. On the agriculture front, the Buni administration distributed farm implements to us, such as tractors, fertilizers, seeds, plows, threshers, and other farm implements. We were getting so many things that our masses benefited from it. And all these are courtesy and great achievements of His Excellency, Governor Mai Mala Buni, CON, Chiroman Gujba.
“In fact, between us, the entire people of Bade local government and His Excellency, the Executive Governor of Yobe State, Hon. Mai Mala Buni CON, continue praying for him. May Allah (SWT) reward him, may Allah reward him with Aljannatul Firdaus, and may Allah accept our prayers. Amen. And what remains to us, we the masses, is only loyalty, support, and cooperation with Buni’s administration.
Hon. Ibrahim Babagana said a visionary leader has done his own part; he solved all our problems and our entitlements, he fulfilled all his campaign promises to the people, and what remains is for us to follow him 100% and continue praying for him. May Allah continue to guide him and complete his tenure successfully, and may Allah guide him to bring a good successor who will continue from where he stopped.
Therefore, my appeal to the people is to be loyal always and always accept what God brings us. All that God designs, nobody can change it, and anything Allah did to you, if you say you didn’t agree, you must suffer. Therefore, we, the people of the Bade local government area, are together with His Excellency. Governor Mai Mala Buni CON Chiroman Gujba.
At the durbar, Babagana said, The Bade emirate council organized a durbar to celebrate the Sallah festivities, and there are so many cultural heritage and dances on display, and in the whole Yobe state, there is no other emirate that organized Sallah festivities on day one and day two and concluded with a durbar like the Bade emirate council. This is a proud moment for me and for the entire people of the Bade local government generally.
He further said on the first day, His Royal Father came and sat down, and thousands of people performed cultural heritage dances in different colors, and on day two, they set up a committee to organize a competition on horse racing. During the competition, they got first, second, and third positions, where His Royal Highness was sitting watching, which was very interesting. It was something for motivation to improve the cultural heritage of the Bade local government, and people supported it.
