Speaking during the handover, the Honourable Commissioner for Youths and Sports Development, Comrade Saina Buba, emphasized the Zulum administration’s dedication to uplifting sports in Borno State.
“In Sha Allah, this is just the beginning. The administration of our mentor, His Excellency Professor Babagana Umara Zulum, is fully committed to providing all that is needed to uplift El-Kanemi Warriors FC and other sports institutions in the state so we can compete favorably at the national level,” Buba stated.
The initiative was met with excitement from supporters of the club. One elated fan, Ali Zakariya, expressed his gratitude, saying, “I’m happy seeing this new car. I know it’s the handiwork of Comrade Saina Buba. That’s why he’s the best among the best. May Allah guide and protect him.”
