“A steward is best known by his principal, but when people barely know he exists, when his work is done, his aim fulfilled, they will say: we did it ourselves.”
At the inauguration of the Governor Simon Bako Lalong led administration in Plateau State, the governor made it clear that his government was coming with a clear vision for the development of the state and would, as a matter of priority, concentrate on five areas where policy has been termed the 5-Point Policy Thrust. These are peace, security, and good governance; human capital development and social welfare; agriculture and rural development; entrepreneurship and industrialization; and physical infrastructure and the environment. And in order to achieve this set goal, selected and purposeful drives will help him drive home these policy frameworks.
Yakubu Datti, a four-time Commissioner whose name is synonymous with breakthroughs and achievement in image management of the rescue administration.
According to Mark Hoss, “A Steward is best known by his principal, even when people barely understand him. When his work is done, his aim fulfilled, he will say: I am satisfied with him.”
Yakubu Datti’s personal disposition in ensuring that the rescue administration policy framework is achieved through effective and efficient media management skills in marketing, imaging, and profiling of administrations and organizations has endured him to the APC Presidential campaign Council.
As seen in his well-known artistry of handling Governor Simon Lalong’s public image and that of the Plateau State government.
His brave stance in sustaining the image of the governor’s appointment as Director General of Bola TINUBU Shettima Campigne is second to none and is one of the reasons for his appointment to keep the engine rolling.
His wealth of experience will be brought to bear, as seen in disseminating the team’s affairs to the admiration of the good and loving people of plateau state, and his recent interview in select media outfits is an indication that the Bola TINUBU Shettima Campigne Organisation is headed for victory, as we all know that the work of the Chief of Staff is the engine room of any well-meaning organization.
