“No, thank you, brother Usman Zubairu,” the governor said in series of tweets, Friday evening.
“Evening, everyone. I came across an interesting tweet indicating that a passionate brother, Usman Zubairu, has embarked on an adventurous trek from Jigawa to Maiduguri in my honour.
“I deeply appreciate Malam Usman’s daring support, I strongly appeal that he aborts his courageous mission.
“To me, he has reached Maiduguri already. I urge us to put Borno and the rest of Nigeria in our silent prayers. That divine way of support can be more effective,” he added.
