A high-powered team of APC governors, under the banner of the Progressive Governors’ Forum (PGF), today paid a condolence visit to the Governor of Katsina State, Malam Dikko Umaru Radda.
The visit came in the aftermath of a recent minor road accident involving Governor Radda along the Katsina-Daura highway.
The visiting governors expressed their personal concern and joined others in thanking Almighty Allah for sparing Governor Radda’s life and protecting him from harm.
The visit was led by the Chairman of the Forum and Governor of Imo State, Senator Hope Uzodimma.
The meeting, which took place at the Katsina State Governor’s Lodge in Abuja yesterday, served as a powerful display of solidarity and brotherhood.
Governor Abdullahi Sule of Nasarawa State offered the opening prayers, while the Governor of Benue State, Rev. Fr. Hyacinth Alia, said the closing prayers.
In his remarks, Governor Hope Uzodimma reaffirmed the unity of the Progressive Governors and expressed gratitude to God for Governor Radda’s recovery and strength.
“We give glory to God that you are strong, out of the hospital, and ready to continue the mandate given to you by your people,” he emphasized.
He noted that their presence was more than symbolic — it was a demonstration of genuine concern and shared compassion.
“When you are happy, we rejoice with you. And when you are mourning, we mourn with you,” he said.
He urged Governor Radda to focus on his full recovery and assured him that his fellow governors remained firmly behind him.
“We are here holding forth for you. Take your medications, recover fully, and rejoin us soon. Our party is growing stronger, our unity is firm, and we will not disappoint the expectations of Nigerians,” he added.
The visiting governors also used the opportunity to personally greet and sympathize with Governor Radda over the road accident he recently survived while going to Daura. They thanked God for sparing his life and prayed for his continued healing and renewed strength.
