“I congratulate the Honourable Minister for deciding to run for the highest office in the land following his development from his time as a Speaker to Governor to a Minister.

The monarch noted that he knows that all the aspirants in the race mean well and have something to offer Nigerians.
“That is why I pray for all running for President; that may All make the best choice”, he said.
“I am grateful to the Emir for his warm reception, kind words and for his prayers & blessings”, Amaechi posted on Facebook on Monday.
