Zamfara State Governor-elect, Dauda Lawal Dare, has assured the indigenes of the state that he will govern with sincerity of purpose and ensure that the entire populace benefits from his administration. In a statement delivered by his media aide, Nuhu Anka, Dare acknowledged the pressing political and democratic challenges facing the state.

One of the key issues the incoming governor addressed was the pervasive problem of insecurity. Dare pledged to collaborate closely with the federal government to find a solution to the ongoing menace. He emphasized that his administration would not merely continue the work of previous governments but instead take proactive measures to rescue the state from its current predicament.

However, he assured the public that his government would go above and beyond to alleviate the suffering of the people. He reiterated his commitment to engaging the federal government in devising effective strategies to tackle the pressing security issues and restore peace and stability to the state.

He emphasized the need for comprehensive development plans that will improve the overall well-being of the citizens. The governor-elect pledged to work tirelessly towards attracting investments, creating job opportunities, and providing essential services to uplift the socio-economic conditions of Zamfara State.
