Borno State Governor Babagana Umara Zulum has urged Usman Zubairu, a young man who has embarked on a trek from Jigawa to Maiduguri in his honour, to abort his trek.
The governor, who said this on his Twitter handle on Friday, asked Zubairu to pray for Borno and the rest of Nigeria instead.
“I came across an interesting tweet indicating that a passionate brother, Usman Zubairu, has embarked on an adventurous trek from Jigawa to Maiduguri in my honour. I deeply appreciate Malam Usman’s daring support, I strongly appeal that he aborts his courageous mission.
“To me, he has reached Maiduguri already. I urge us to put Borno and the rest of Nigeria in our silent prayers. That divine way of support can be more effective,” Zulum said.
