“The people need to prioritise their commitment toward the education of female just like their male counterpart.‎”

“We appeal to everybody, especially well- meaning individuals irrespective of party differences, to provide the environment to aid girl-child education,” he said.‎

The monarch also admonished the people of Kano to support each other and work as a team for the overall development of the state.
