Hey! Let Zulum Shine Again, Next Week Monday To Thursday

By Abdurrahman Ahmed Bundi*

Since 2019, Borno’s Governor, Professor Babagana Umara Zulum, has completed over 1,238 capital projects across the state’s 27 local government areas.

Among these were the three mega-secondary schools commissioned by the World Bank Country Director, Dr. Ndiame Diop, as well as the 1.2 km Shehu Abubakar Garbai Express Way, Borno Express Flyover, Metro Housing (Kashim Shettima Estate), and Njimtilo 500 Housing Units (Mai Mala Buni Estate), all of which were commissioned by Yobe State Governor last week.

We have been diligently planning a comprehensive multimedia campaign to highlight 7 (seven) of Zulum’s recently commissioned projects.

Some may find this unusual, given that it comes a week after the projects were commissioned. However, it was strategically and purposefully planned to let the mainstream media hype on the projects die down first, before we “take over” social media. We intend to bombard all social media platforms with Zulum’s recently commissioned landmark projects.

Let me quote my late boss, Mallam Isa Gusau, who used to say, “Hey guys, you are all familiar with how we operate.” We will be agog on social media for four (4) days, syndicating Zulum’s seven (7) recently produced multimedia promotional content across social media and other online and digital platforms.

Our syndicated content distribution will, insha’Allah, begin on Monday, December 16, 2024, and conclude on Thursday, December 19, 2024.

I would like to use this medium to request everyone’s participation in highlighting our Governor, Professor Babagana Umara Zulum, as Governor of Borno State.

Zulum has received several awards for his outstanding achievements, including the Forbes Magazine African Leadership Award 2024, the African Governor of the Year Award (Education and People Development Category) 2023 from African Leadership Magazine, and the Exemplary Leadership Award 2023 from Naija Diaspora Magazine.

He was conferred with Nigeria’s national honour as Commander of the Order of the Niger (CON) by President Muhammadu Buhari in 2022 and also a recipient of the Republic of Niger’s Second Order of National Honour, “de Grand Officer Dans I`Ordre” in 2021, which is the equivalent of Grand Commander of the Order of the Niger, GCON, in Nigeria’s ranking of national honours. He is a hero and leader worth celebrating and we have to do it, once again, in grand style.
