The new governor of Zamfara state Dauda Lawal has opened up on declaring nine trillion naira as his asset.
Lawal who was sworn in as the Zamfara state governor on Monday, May 29, 2023, was allegedly declared an asset worth N9trillion and placed him above Aliko Dangote who is Africa’s richest man.
However, reacting to the development on Thursday during an interview with Radio France International (RFI) Hausa, he said the people of Zamfara will not be facing so many challenges if he had N9 trillion, adding that he would have used the money for the development of the state.
The governor said the allegation was speculation by people looking to cause mischief, adding that his assets are available for those who wish to verify.
“Amin. I hope so and I pray that God gives me that kind of money. May God bless me with that kind of money to help my people,” he said.
