The Kaduna State Governor, Uba Sani, on Sunday, shrugged off criticism by his predecessor, Nasir El-Rufai, and reiterated his commitment to good governance in the state.
Sani spoke during an Iftar dinner with Social Media Influencers at the Sir Kashim Ibrahim House in Kaduna.
The governor was reacting to claim by El-Rufai that he was using police to harass him and his loyalists.
Sani nevertheless reiterated that his focus was to serve the people who elected him rather than engaging in unnecessary discussions.
The governor stressed that he was elected by the people of the state to serve them and therefore, has no time to respond to idle talks.

He said: “My preoccupation is to serve the people of Kaduna State, who elected me. I am not bothered by baseless and idle talks, which will add no value to governance.”
He highlighted the achievements his administration has recorded in the state since coming into office, citing notable progress in agriculture, education, and security in areas previously beset by insecurity.
“We have made significant strides in addressing security challenges in Birnin Gwari and Giwa local governments. The Birnin Gwari cattle market, which had been closed for over 10 years due to security issues, was reopened last November, and business is now thriving.
“We have addressed the long-standing issue of water scarcity in the state by declaring a state of emergency in the water sector upon taking office,” he added.
