The Emir of Kano, Alhaji Aminu Ado Bayero, has advised the First Lady, Sen. Oluremi Tinubu, to bring to the notice of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu about the high level of hunger in the country.

“Although we have several means of communicating to the Government on our needs and requests, your way and means is the best way to tell the President what is happening in the country,” the Emir told Tinubu’s wife, who was in Kano to open the Faculty of Law at a private University.

The Emir, who spoke through an interpreter, added, “The hunger and starvation didn’t start with this government but the situation has become more alarming and needs urgent attention.”

He also urged her to tell Tinubu to address insecurity, saying, “The issue of insecurity is another serious problem we are facing. I know your government inherited it, but something more serious should be done to take care of the threats.”

Bayero also spoke on the relocation of the Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN), and some Departments of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) to Lagos.

“We are receiving a series of messages from our people. One such message is the much-talked-about relocation of CBN and FAAN to Lagos. I think the Government should come out clean on this matter and talk to Nigerians in the language they would understand.

“Do more enlightenment on this matter. I for one cannot tell the actual intentions of the government. We should be made to understand the reasons behind the relocation of the CBN and FAAN offices to Lagos.”

In the same vein, he urged the President’s wife to actualize her Renewed Hope Initiative Pet Program, noting that the scheme, if fully actualized, will free the less privileged from their shackles.
