In other news, Governor Sule has boasted that he is the only Muslim governor in Nigeria who went to Church to thank God after his victory in the last governorship election in 2019.
The Nasarawa state governor said he did this because he had his early secondary education at a Christian church, precisely a Roman Catholic setting.
Sule made this revelation during his commissioning and dedication of Evangelical Reformed Church of Christ (ERCC) ultra-modern headquarters secretariat located in the Akwanga local government area of the state.
Similarly, the governor said in another report that he is not bothered about being re-elected in 2023.
Governor Sule said he was grateful to God for giving him a four-year mandate; saying it is long enough for him to contribute his quota to the development of the state.
