“That I have a rugged grassroot fighter as the person who will supplement the things that I know. He will teach me how to be a consummate politician.
“Alhaji Abdulganiyu Galadima is definitely known for the work he has done at the grassroot level. As someone who started a strong career in local government, he is the kind of person I need, for us to lift 80 million people out of poverty.
