The Sallar Gani, a popular Eid-Maulud festival celebrated annually by Muslims in Nigeria, turned into an opportunity for youths in Jigawa State to express

In the video of the event at Gumel Local Government Council of Jigawa State on Saturday, which was obtained by DAILY POST on Sunday, the governor and his deputy Umar Namadi were seen cheering the celebrants who were majorly youths.

Governor Badaru, who was elected in 2015 and 2019 on the platform of the ruling All Progressives Congress , is in his second tenure of office and will be completing his administration by May 29, 2023. Sallar Gani is a popular celebration during the annual Eid-El-Maulud in Gumel, where the people display an age-old blend of multiethnic cultures through Dubar and other cultural activities.

Reacting to the video, the Special Adviser to the governor on Media and Publicity, Alhaji Habibu Nuhu Kila said, “it was not true”, adding that those chanting ‘bamayi’ could be hirelings of those who don’t mean well for the State.
