The 11th Annual Arewa House Lecture will have National Leader of the All Progressive Congress (APC) Asiwaju Ahmed Bola Tinubu as chairman. The lecture is in honour of the late premier of Western Region and Sardauna of Sokoto, Sir Ahmadu Bello.
The Director of Arewa House, Dr. Shuaibu Shehu Aliyu disclosed this to newsmen in Kaduna. He further confirmed that His Excellency Simon Lalong, Governor of Plateau state and Chairman of Northern States Governors’ Forum will deliver the lecture.
According to Dr. Aliyu, “The Lecture is designed primarily to serve as a forum to promote national unity, because one of the major essence of Arewa House is to promote national harmony and national unity.
“Governor Lalong was carefully selected to deliver the lecture, because he is currently the Chairman of the Northern Governors’ Forum and his capacity to manage Plateau state, which was seen as a front line state in terms of crisis in the past 20 years. But on assumption of office, he has been able to manage that crisis.
“Also for the chairmanship, we always look at the track records of prominent individuals before selecting who chairs the lecture. Asiwaju Bola Tinubu has been selected to add value to the event, the political development and unity of the country,” he said.
