Governor Aminu Waziri Tambuwal on Wednesday flagged off Federal Government’s ‘Change Begins With Me’ campaign in Sokoto, urging residents to shun vices inimical to societal cohesion and progress.
Speaking while handing over jingles of the campaign to the state Commissioner for Information, Jeli Abdulkadir, for broadcast in the state media outfits, Governor Tambuwal said all Nigerians should imbibe the virtues of social reorientation and avoid bad behaviours imbibed, especially in recent years.
The governor said, “We should be positive in our thinking and have better attitude towards issues. Importantly, we should all support the government of President Muhammadu Buhari for it to deliver on its promises to the people of Nigeria.
“Already the government is doing exceedingly well in the fight against insecurity and the fight against corruption. Similar efforts are being done to turn around the economy. You will agree with me these are the three main things which the President promised us and he is on track in those areas.”
He added that the state would use its media organs to educate the citizens, while at the same time taking the lead in change of attitude.
According to him, the messages would be translated into Hausa and Fulfulde languages, and disseminated in all the nooks and crannies of the state for the benefit of the people.
