The former Lagos State governor who also used the opportunity of the dinner to sell his candidacy to the Kano Business Council, said if elected in 2023, he would ensure that Nigeria’s diversity serves as a source of prosperity for all Nigerians.

“Unity in diversity, peace and prosperity are the fulcrum of my mission in this contest.”
