While lambasting the military and political class for failing to provide the needed leadership for the nation, Governor Masari said: “the military have failed. The politicians have failed,” adding “since all of us have failed, let us come and find solution to our failure.”

The governor, who spoke on Monday, January 25, when he granted audience to participants of Senior Course 38 of Armed Forces Command and Staff College (AFCSC), stressed that Nigeria “required the right leadership to be back on track.”

Masari decried what he termed as “over centralisation and unification” of everything in the country, insisting that doing such was counterproductive and stressed the need for states to be administered based on their strengths, potentials and respective economic capabilities.

The Governor pointed out that Katsina state, with three large bodies of water, has the potential to support itself and assist neighbouring countries through agriculture just as he tasked the AFCSC team to examine major challenges confronting the state.

He stressed that his administration was mindful of the dwindling revenue accruing to the state and would in response to that accord top priority to agriculture.

Meanwhil, Katsina state government has urged the federal government to examine the statutory duties of Economic and Financial Crime Commission (EFCC) and Independent Corrupt Practices and other related offenses Commission (ICPC) to upgrade their activities.
