special adviser to the governor on media and publicity, said in a statement sent to PREMIUM TIMES Tuesday.

Malam Nasir El-Rufai said that Kaduna State is honoured to be able to call on the services of a man of such calibre to drive its development.
“The Governor also said that he is confident that the new board, which includes the most senior officers of the state will further propel KADIPA to greater success in attracting investments to Kaduna State. He disclosed that the external members have been carefully chosen to further reinforce the investment credentials of the state.
“The new board of KADIPA has the following members:

At last something to cheer the emier of toto up, congratulations sir.

This people are using the masses to play chess, ludo, table tennis, football hide and seek and any other game you can think of. There is a perfect game plan gradually playing out. It is better to keep silent and watch than to misyarn.

The plot thickens or is this a new plot?

2013 will be interesting in Nigeria.

2023 you mean to type.

This is just a small beginning, bigger National and international appointments will soon start rolling in for Sanusi. Ganduje will be ashamed of his petty vindictiveness at the end of the day.

If I may ask, is there any point of disagreement between Ganduje and El Rufai? If not, then something is fishy. I need to be enlightened.

You expect him to leave Toto for dis

Ok let's wait and see

The emir of TOTO himself

Ganduje is a petty and vindictive old fool. With this immediate appointment, El-Rufai has made a big statement that he’s not in support of the dethronement.

Dreal1247:

2023 you mean to type.

Yea. Thanks. Modified

El rufai is smart, he knows what sanusi can bring to the table

You just took words off my mouth. Something is brewing and i can't wait to see the end

Presidential candidate on the line.
