I led a high-powered delegation to Zuru, Kebbi State, to commiserate with the Emir of Zuru, Sanusi Muhammad Mika’ilu, and the family of the late Hajiya Hajara Hussaini (Innar Manir).

Her demise is a significant loss to her family, the people of Kebbi State, and our wider region. As we submit to the will of Almighty Allah, we pray that He, in His infinite mercy, forgives her shortcomings, grants her eternal repose in Aljannatul Firdaus, and comforts all those she left behind.

May Allah strengthen the bonds of brotherhood between our people and reward the deceased with His boundless mercy. Ameen. -AAS

As we celebrate Eid al-Adha, I extend my warmest greetings to the good people of Sokoto State and the entire Muslim Ummah.

This sacred occasion reminds us of the timeless values of sacrifice, obedience, compassion, and devotion to Almighty Allah. May these virtues continue to guide us in our daily lives and strengthen our collective commitment to peace, unity, and progress.

I urge all citizens to continue praying for Sokoto State and our dear nation, while also extending love and support to the less privileged during this blessed season.

On behalf of the Government and people of Sokoto State, I wish everyone a peaceful and joyous Eid al-Adha celebration. -AAS

I was deeply honoured by the overwhelming confidence reposed in me by our great party, the All Progressives Congress, as I emerged its gubernatorial candidate for the 2027 elections.

This endorsement is not just for me, but for the good people of Sokoto State who have stood firmly with our administration and supported our vision for a safer, stronger and more prosperous state.

Over the last three years, we have worked tirelessly in the areas of security, infrastructure, youth empowerment, workers’ welfare and religious affairs, and by the grace of Allah, we will continue to deliver even greater dividends of democracy to our people.

I sincerely thank our leader, Sen. Aliyu Magatakarda Wamakko, party stakeholders, delegates and the entire people of Sokoto State for their trust, prayers and steadfast support. Together, we shall consolidate on the progress already achieved and take Sokoto to greater heights. -AAS

Alhamdulillah, I successfully completed the gubernatorial screening exercise of our great party, the All Progressives Congress, ahead of the 2027 Governorship Election in Sokoto State.

I sincerely appreciate the leadership of the party under the able chairmanship of Nentawe Yilwatda for the confidence reposed in me, as well as the overwhelming support, prayers and goodwill of the good people of Sokoto State.

In line with our commitment to strengthening traditional institutions and deepening grassroots governance, our administration will soon commence the phased renovation of District Heads’ palaces across the state, beginning with Wurno. This initiative is aimed at providing befitting accommodation that reflects their vital role in community leadership, peacebuilding, and local administration.

We remain resolute in working closely with the Sultanate Council to confront pressing challenges, particularly in enhancing security and improving the welfare of our rural communities.

With the continued support, prayers, and constructive engagement of our people, we will sustain our drive towards infrastructural development, urban renewal, and a more prosperous Sokoto State for all. -AAS

Earlier today, I paid the traditional Sallah homage to His Eminence, the Sultan of Sokoto, Sa’ad Abubakar III.

I extended our profound appreciation to our esteemed Islamic scholars whose unwavering commitment to Tafsir, Taraweeh, and Tahajjud throughout Ramadan has profoundly enriched the spiritual consciousness of our people.

As we mark this year’s Eid, I call for the sustenance of these noble virtues and continued prayers for enduring peace, unity, and the successful eradication of banditry across our state. Our administration remains resolute in its commitment to delivering meaningful dividends of democracy.

May Allah (SWT) accept our عبادات and guide us to uphold the values of justice, discipline, and compassion beyond the holy month. -AAS

As we welcome the blessed occasion of Eid, I extend my warmest greetings to the good people of Sokoto State and the entire Muslim Ummah.

Eid Mubarak! May this sacred season bring renewed faith, peace, and prosperity to our homes and our dear state. It is a time of gratitude, sacrifice, and compassion—values that continue to bind us together as one people.

I urge us all to uphold the spirit of unity, extend kindness to the less privileged, and continue to pray for the peace, stability, and progress of Sokoto State and our nation.

It was an honour to attend the grand finale of the 61st Argungu International Fishing and Cultural Festival, a timeless symbol of unity, heritage and National Cohesion.

I sincerely appreciate the presence of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu GCFR, whose attendance reflects strong federal support for our cultural legacy. I also commend Governor Nasir Idris for successfully reviving this UNESCO-recognized festival.

In celebrating excellence, I donated a saloon car to the winner, a Hajj seat to the runner-up, and motorcycles to the third-place winners. Together, we will continue to preserve our heritage and promote shared prosperity. -AAS

[Ahmad Aliyu Sokoto @Ahmedaliyuskt]

Alhamdulillah. Yesterday, I had the profound honour of commissioning the Buhari Dan Shehu Jumu’at Mosque in Tambuwal, a sacred edifice once left incomplete, now restored to serve its rightful purpose as a centre of worship, learning, and community cohesion.

I extend my deep appreciation to our leader and mentor, Sen. Aliyu Magatakarda Wamakko, whose selfless commitment made the completion of this mosque possible.

The construction, renovation, and upgrading of religious institutions remain a strategic pillar of our 9-Point Development Agenda, reflecting our resolve to strengthen not only infrastructure but also the moral and spiritual foundation of our society.

I am equally grateful for the goodwill conveyed by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and for the prayers offered for the continued peace, stability, and prosperity of Sokoto State.

By the grace of God, we shall continue to build institutions, communities, and a future anchored in faith and progress. -AAS

Today, I am deeply honoured and profoundly grateful to His Excellency, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, for graciously serving as Wali at the wedding Fātiḥa of my children, held at the National Mosque, Abuja. I remain sincerely honoured by this rare privilege.

In addition, the presence of the President of the Democratic Republic of São Tomé and Príncipe, His Excellency President Carlos Vila Nova, added immense meaning to this joyous occasion, and I deeply appreciated it.

I also wish to extend my heartfelt appreciation to everyone who joined us physically and in prayers to share in our joy. Your presence, prayers, and goodwill are truly cherished and deeply appreciated.

To my esteemed colleagues in the Federal Executive Council, Governors, members of the National Assembly, friends, family members, and well-wishers from across the nation, I am eternally grateful for the overwhelming love and kindness shown to me and my family.

I also pray that Allah rewards abundantly all those who travelled from far and near to celebrate with us, and I ask Allah to grant you a safe and peaceful journey back to your respective destinations.

May Allah bless you all abundantly. Thank you.

I joined my colleagues at a Progressive Governors’ Forum meeting to assess our party’s direction and Nigeria’s reform journey under President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

We commended the party leadership for initiatives that promote transparency and wider participation, including digital membership registration, and endorsed the timetable for party congresses and the national convention in line with INEC guidelines.

We collectively reaffirmed our commitment to internal democracy and inclusive, accountable leadership. -AAS

[Ahmad Aliyu Sokoto @Ahmedaliyuskt]

Today, I assented to the 2026 Sokoto State Appropriation Bill of ₦758.7bn — a People’s Budget drawn from the voices of our citizens through extensive town hall engagements.

With only 19% devoted to recurrent expenditure, the budget prioritises capital development across security, agriculture, healthcare, education, water supply and human capital development.

I commend the Sokoto State House of Assembly for its thorough scrutiny, swift passage and the commendation received.

Our administration remains firmly committed to prudent governance and delivering lasting development for the people of Sokoto State. -AAS

I am pleased that Sokoto State hosted the national flag-off of the 2026 Trans-Boundary Animal Diseases Vaccination by the Honourable Minister of Livestock Development, Hon. Muktari Maiha, alongside the commissioning of the L-PRES Model Veterinary Hospital.

This strategic intervention will strengthen animal health systems, reduce livestock losses, boost meat and milk production, create jobs, and improve the livelihoods of our farmers and pastoralists.

We will continue to work closely with the Federal Government under the leadership of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to modernise livestock production and enhance food security in Sokoto State and Nigeria. -AAS
