Hon. Magaji Da’u Aliyu, Deputy Director General (North) of the Tinubu Support Group (TSG), has described President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s re-election for a second term as timely and in Nigeria’s best interest, citing the President’s bold reforms and dedication to socio-economic development.
Aliyu spoke shortly after receiving an Award of Honour from the Nigerian Union of Teachers (NUT), Birnin Kudu Local Government Area branch, in recognition of his contributions to education and community development.
The former House of Representatives member commended Tinubu for his commitment, intellect, and steadfast efforts in implementing social and infrastructural reforms. “Nigerians owe President Tinubu deep appreciation for his dedication to national progress,” Aliyu said.
He also praised Jigawa State Governor Malam Umar Namadi for initiatives to revitalise the education sector, including timely funding and support for both basic and tertiary institutions. Aliyu described the NUT recognition as an encouragement to continue contributing to societal development. “Whatever we have done is a contribution to development and the upliftment of our people, which we consider a duty,” he added.
The NUT Birnin Kudu branch chairman, Alhaji Musa Muhammad, explained that the event aimed to honour individuals and organisations for outstanding contributions to education, including financial and material support. He highlighted Aliyu’s efforts in sponsoring youths to colleges of education to obtain the Nigeria Certificate in Education (NCE) and his support for teaching and learning initiatives.
Other speakers, including the District Head of Birnin Kudu, Alhaji Husain Hassan Jibrin, urged the NUT to strengthen monitoring and inspection to improve student attendance and outcomes. Alhaji Ahmad Sa’id Kangire, Chairman of Muryar Birnin Kudu, announced plans to form a committee to oversee the disbursement of educational donations, ensuring stronger community involvement in addressing educational needs.
