He further stated that the State Working Committee of his party has given him ‘a nod of approval’.
He however said that he is contented with his present position as a governor but is ready to serve the country in any capacity.
“Some of you saw me last week, going round to meet former ministers, senators and other leaders to discuss it (political ambition) .But I have to consult traditional rulers and ulamas too because I need their support,” the governor said.
