The Kulen Allah Cattle Rearers Association of Nigeria (KACRAN) has formally acknowledged the administration of Yobe State governor, Dr, Mai Mala Buni as being unique, inclusive and compassionate leadership style.
According to the National Chairman of the Association, Khalid Muhammad Bello, “it is our firm conviction that the enviable achievements recorded in Yobe State and within the national political landscape over the past seven years are the direct result of Governor Buni’s effort.
“We recognize Governor Buni as a statesman of high caliber — a gentleman who treats all citizens with respect, dignity, and sympathy. That’s why his journey from a Local Government Councilor and Speaker in Gujba L G to the National Secretary of the APC, and ultimately the Executive Governor of Yobe State, demonstrates a lifetime of dedicated service.
”We particularly highlight his 2019 decision to answer the call of the Yobe people, sacrificing his influential national position to serve at the grassroots level. This act of selflessness defines his character as a leader who prioritizes the common man above personal ambition.”
Obviously, the governor is transforming Yobe State through Human-Centric Policies and
”our assessment of the his administration reveals a consistent focus on peace and human development. Under his watch, Yobe State has achieved milestones that command international respect.
“In Health and Education sectors “we celebrate Yobe’s ranking as the top state in the North East and Nigeria in the year 2025, for basic healthcare services, a feat recognized by the United Nations with a significant performance-based grant.”
Agricultural Development:
“We appreciate the Governor’s partnership with L-PRES and other international donor agencies to modernize livestock development, which is critical to the livelihoods of our members.”
Governor Buni’s reputation as a man of wisdom and a “Great Arbitrator” is well-earned.
“We have observed firsthand, his ability to surround himself with a team of high integrity — from the Deputy Governor and SSG to the Commissioners, Head of Service, Chief of Staff and other Permanent Secretaries — who work in synergy to deliver on the governor’s vision.
“We fully endorse the 2026 ‘Budget of Job Creation’, which aporopriates billions of Naira to complete modern markets in Damaturu, Potiskum, Gashua, Nguru, and Geidam. These projects are vital to ending unemployment and boosting local commerce.
“We also appreciate the Governor’s partnership with L-PRES and other international donor agencies to modernize livestock development, which is critical to the livelihoods of our members.
KACRAN continued: “We also use this platform to express our profound joy and congratulate the governor on his recent appointment by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu as the Chairman of the APC Committee on Strategy, Conflict Resolution, and Mobilization.
This appointment confirms what we in KACRAN have always believed that Governor Buni is one of the few surviving politicians whose primary concern is the peace and unity of Nigeria.
