Emir of Kano, Sanusi Lamido Sanusi, has commended Governor Willie Obiano for deploying his wealth of experience and administrative skills in the growth and development of Anambra state within his short period in government.

Mr Sanusi gave the commendation during his visit to Anambra for a private engagement.

The former Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria who was once a colleague of Mr Obiano, noted that the governor distinguished himself even in the sector, resulting to their continued friendship.

He therefore prayed for the peaceful conduct of the forthcoming governorship election in the state adding that Anambra under Governor Obiano will continue to make progress.

Meanwhile, the United States Ambassador, Mr Stuart Symington, also paid a visit to the governor where he assured him of the support of the U.S, especially in the areas of agriculture, health, education and industrialisation.

“Working together as one, we can do anything including resolving all those challenges you are facing in security, resolving all those challenges you face in food production and resolving every other challenges that you face that put people away.

“So it is a great privilege to meet your governor, it’s wonderful to meet your commissioners and your team and to have the chance to come once again to this very important part of Nigeria,” Mr Symington stated.
