He urged the new chairman to see the election as a unique opportunity to forge a harmonious and fruitful working relationship with the Federal Government and other tiers of government.

“The focal objective of the Nigeria Governors’ Forum at all times ought to be the higher interest of the people of this country above partisan, political, religious or regional differences,” he said.

Buhari said the Federal Government would continue to support the Forum in its laudable objectives.

The president also commended the immediate past NGF chairman, Gov. Abdulaziz Yari of Zamfara for his leadership styles.
