Represented by the Special Adviser on Strategy, Alh. Sa’adu Salahu, the SSG expressed delight that “Kwara is a state of harmony where Muslims and Christians live peacefully together.
“The state government under the able leadership of Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq shall continue to do everything possible to encourage and preserve the peaceful and harmonious co-existence amongst the Muslims and Christians in the state which has made the state the envy of other states in the country,” Jibril added.
The permanent secretary, Establishment and Training, who is the Ameer of the Governor’s Office Madrasat, Alh.
