Serving in President Muhammadu Buhari’s government seems to have become unattractive as a former governorship candidate in Katsina State, Usman Bugaje, has also rejected his nomination as ambassador.
Mr. Bugaje had contested the Katsina governorship election on the platform of the defunct Action Congress of Nigeria.
In a Facebook post, he rejected his nomination, saying his hands were full.
Bugaje Posted on his wall:
“Regarding the published nomination for an ambassadorial posting, I have not spoken to the press and may not do so anytime soon.
“I thank those who think me fit for the job, but I have so much in my hands already, especially the Arewa Research and Development Project (ARDP), which is the only broad platform in the North driving development. I have weighed the options and have decided to remain home and continue the struggle for development and good governance.”
