The President of the Senate, Ahmad Lawan, felicitates his fellow people of Yobe State on the occasion of the 30th anniversary of the creation of the State. Lawan particularly rejoices with Governor Mai Mala Buni and members of his government on the auspicious occasion. “The creation of Yobe State in 1991 was a dream come true for our people who for years had peacefully pressed for the creation of the State to bring government closer to them so that they can control and increase the pace of development of the state. Thus, August 27, 1991 represents for the good people of Yobe a new beginning and the dawn of new opportunities. “I salute our leaders for their vision that brought about Yobe State. I also salute the generality of our people for their pride in the state and their commitment to its unity, peace and progress. Let us continue to work to keep Yobe State truly as the Pride of the Sahel.
