While highlighting the various achievements recorded by the Goje administration since 2003 when it came to power, the group said “looking at the summary of achievements by Governor Goje in just a short period of time, it is highly commendable, and having reflected deeply on the prevailing situation in the state, and taking cognizance of the desire and hope of the people for a purposeful, people-oriented and responsive government, we are quite confident that Alhaji Inuwa Yahaya will be able to wear Governor Goje’s shoes without much stress.”
