By Abdu Labaran Malumfashi.
I am given to writing open letters for this one to attract the attention it deserves from many people. But this is a special letter, because it means a lot to me, as it is an opportunity for me to not only apologise, but also express my sincere regret over the writing and sending same to them.
I did not do it to spite anyone, least of all those people who I hold in a very high esteem. Some of them have helped me in the period of most need, which therefore, would make me an ingrate if I should now turn against them by using a ‘gift’ that Allah Subhana Wa Ta’aLah Has made easy for me.
I must be thankful to Him, and those He used to assist me. I am not by any stretch of the imagination thinking that what I do is made possible by my own ‘might, strength, knowledge, or mastery of the art’. It is simply from Allah, and I remain eternally grateful to Him.
Then to people like the Governor of Katsina State, His Excellency Dr. Dikko Umar Radda, PhD, CON, the Deputy Governor of Katsina State, Alhaji Faruk Jobe, Alhaji Ibrahim Kabir Masari, the Senior Special Assistant (SSA) to the President on Political Affairs and one person who has been assisting me at all times, be it in thick or in thin, Alhaji Ibrahim Teacher, Sardaunan Galadiman Malumfashi and Alhaji Kasim Abdo, who has been up and doing to ensure that I remain relevant in the society, despite my shortcomings.
The people on my list of gratitude is inexhaustible, to the extent that I cannot mention all by name in this write up or any other fora because of the limitation of space. There is absolutely no space to mention everyone, so those who feel left out, should not feel offended, again. It is neither an oversight from me nor is it meant to slight them.
I also deliberately refused to mention the topic that I wrote on yesterday and which warranted this apology, because it is said that ‘two wrongs do not make a (one) right’. For that, all I can do is to apologise, and say I am sorry. And also assure them that it will never happen again.
