Katsina Governor Aminu Bello Masari, the Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi, ex-Chief of Army Staff, Lt. General Tukur Buratai, and a slew of other dignitaries were in attendance on Saturday at the turbaning of Minister of Transportation Rotimi Chibuike Amechi as “Dan Amana Daura” (the trusted son of Daura) in Daura .
While performing the ritual at the Royal palace in Daura, Alhaji Umar Faruq, Emir of Daura, asked Nigerians to continue to pray for President Muhammadu Buhari and the country.
He remarked that the President deserved every Nigerian’s support and prayers as he navigated the country’s affairs toward economic progress and other issues.
The Monarch said: “My speech is not complete without showing gratitude to President Muhammadu Buhari.
“I call on all Nigerians to continue their support and prayers for the President as he navigates our great country through numerous challenges.
‘’We pray for Allah’s guidance and protection for him as he pilots our country towards economic revitalisation, progress and development.”

While justifying the Minister’s conferred title, the Emir insisted that it was awarded only on the basis of merit and his contributions to the Daura Emirate and Nigeria in general.
In his words: “Daura Emirate does not confer titles on people because of money. The Emirate considers the services rendered to humanity by whoever he wants to honour.
“The Kano – Daura – Katsina rail line which will terminate at Maradi ( The Niger Republic) and the Federal University of Transportation, Daura would bring us benefits in the education of our youths, create employment for our teeming youths and socio-economic development of our community and that of Nigeria.
‘’It is because of all these that we are honoring him with the title.”
