President Muhammadu Buhari has said that the former Nigeria’s minister and head of different public institutions, Professor Jerry Gana has distinguished himself from others with his zeal to see that Nigeria grow.
In a goodwill message to the Professor as he marks his 75th birthday, President Buhari acknowledged Professor Gana’s “life of service to country, humanity and God, with many reasons to be thankful.”
He described Professor Gana as a scholar, politician and administrator, who came into national and global limelight at an early age, and passionately threw himself into public service, working variously as head of institutions, including Directorate of Food, Roads and Rural Infrastructure (DFRRI), Mass Mobilization for Social Justice and Economic Recovery and Minister of Agriculture and Natural Resources, Information and Culture and Cooperation and Integration.
He appealed to the Professor to be more committed to the cause of the nation with his experience, knowledge and wisdom.
