Governor Ganduje pleads for forgiveness in Ramadan lecture


In a Ramadan lecture series at Al Furqan Juma’at Mosque located at Nasarawa GRA, Kano, outgoing Governor Abdullahi Ganduje of Kano State pleaded for forgiveness from those he may have offended during his two-term tenure as the state’s chief executive.

Governor Ganduje drew inspiration from the position of Islam, which espouses forgiveness as a prime virtue.

He urged those who he had wronged to forgive him, saying that he had already forgiven those who had wronged him, regardless of the gravity of the offense.

Governor Ganduje’s tenure as governor of Kano state ends on May 29, 2023, and he is expected to hand over the reins of power to the opposition New Nigeria People’s Party’s governor-elect, Abba Kabiru.
