APC chieftain hails Senator Sani Musa’s new Nupe title

A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Abayomi Nurain Mumuni, has praised the recent conferment of the title of Madakin Raya Kasar Nupe on the senator representing Niger East Senatorial District and Chairman of the Senate Committee on Finance, Senator Mohammed Sani Musa, by the Etsu Nupe and Chairman of the Niger State Council of Traditional Rulers, Alhaji Yahaya Abubakar.

In a statement made available to newsmen on Friday, Mumuni said the prestigious title was a fitting recognition of Senator Musa’s character, leadership qualities, and longstanding contributions to society.

According to him, his relationship with the senator spans several decades and is rooted in mutual trust, loyalty, and shared values.

“Sani Musa is more of a brother to me than a friend. We have been partners in virtually everything for multiple decades. In the whole of Nigeria, I have no confidant closer than Sani Musa. Even though people rarely see us together publicly, there is hardly a day that passes without us communicating,” he said.

Mumuni described the senator as a man who genuinely believes in peaceful coexistence and the principle of “live and let live.”

“Sani Musa is a good man who believes in the philosophy of live and let live. He is humble, accommodating, and committed to the progress of others. These are qualities that have endeared him to many people across political, ethnic, and religious divides,” he stated.

Beyond his personal attributes, Mumuni praised Senator Musa’s performance as a legislator, noting that he has consistently championed initiatives aimed at addressing national challenges and improving the welfare of citizens.

“Senator Sani Musa has demonstrated unwavering commitment to legislative initiatives that address pressing issues affecting our nation. His engagement in policy discussions and advocacy for the welfare of his constituents reflect his dedication to public service,” he said.

He noted that the senator’s contributions cut across economic development, infrastructure improvement, and legislative reform, adding that his collaborative approach to governance has made him an influential voice in national discourse.

“His work spans critical areas, including economic development, infrastructure improvement, and legislative reform. His collaborative approach with colleagues and willingness to engage stakeholders have contributed meaningfully to national discourse and decision-making processes,” Mumuni added.

The APC chieftain commended Senator Musa’s active participation in national debates and his commitment to representing the interests of the people of Niger East.

“His consistent presence in national debates and efforts to represent the interests of his constituents showcase the qualities expected of a dedicated public servant. I commend his service to our nation and his role in advancing national priorities,” he said.

Senator Musa, popularly known as “313”, is a prominent member of the APC and currently serves as Chairman of the Senate Committee on Finance.

Apart from the newly conferred title, Senator Musa also holds the traditional title of Dan Durbin Minna in the Minna Emirate, reflecting his growing influence and acceptance within traditional institutions in Niger State.

Mumuni prayed for greater wisdom, strength, and success for the senator, expressing confidence that he would continue to justify the trust reposed in him by both the people and traditional authorities.
