Kaduna state governor, Nasir El-Rufai, said he would continue to demolish all illegal property erected on public lands in the state.
The governor, who was rumoured to be incapacitated, said on Thursday, that he is very much alive and he will continue to do his job.
El-Rufai said this when he addressed members of Nigerian Labour Congress and Trade Union Congress.
He said: “I want to appreciate your support. I am grateful for all the suggestions you have given me.
“I have listened to your demands and I am going to take your message to President Buhari. I am happy to be your messenger because I am just your mere servant and President Buhari is the number one civil servant in Nigeria. He is working for all of us.
“As for me, and my team, we are serious about making Kaduna a better place for all and very uncomfortable for a minority who grab school lands.
“They said I have died, some said that I have collapsed. They said all kinds of things but look at me here today. No one shall distract us from our goal of making Kaduna great again. We must make sure they lose these lands, no matter what it takes.”
