William Ruto, Tony Blair, and Others Support Induction Of New Governors

The Nigeria Governors’ Forum (NGF) has set May 15 as the start date for its induction program for newly elected and re-elected governors.

According to Naija News, the introduction would concentrate on important facets of government, such as ethics, vetting, and hiring into the governor’s office to make the job of managing their respective states easier.

Abdulrazaque Barkindo, the NGF’s director of media and public affairs, announced this in a statement on Tuesday.

He stated, “On this occasion, the current Mayor of New York City, Eric Adams, and two former American Governors, Terry McAuliffe of the State of Virginia and O’Malley Martin Joseph of Maryland, are gracing the occasion.

“Also invited to the NGF induction are former British Prime Minister Tony Blair, Mr. Jean Pierre Elong Mbassi, the Secretary General of United Cities and Local Governments of Africa, and President William Ruto of Kenya. Expected to speak too at the NGF induction is Professor Peter Anyang Nyongo, Governor of the Kisumu County in Kenya ‘who transformed Kenya’s hospital fund to a national health insurance fund.’ ”The same induction programme will also deal with how to seamlessly ease the outgoing governors to a life after office. The last two days of the week will be occupied by activities of the First Ladies.”
