Former Vice President and Wazirin Adamawa, His Excellency Atiku Abubakar, has been notably active this week. Acting on behalf of the Lamido Adamawa, His Royal Highness Muhammadu Barkindo Aliyu Musdafa, Atiku had the honor and privilege of supervising the turbaning ceremony of seven new traditional title holders at the Lamido’s Palace in Yola, Adamawa State.

The turbaning ceremony is a significant cultural event, symbolizing the conferment of traditional titles and roles within the emirate. It highlights the enduring traditions and rich cultural heritage of the Adamawa Emirate. Atiku Abubakar’s participation underscores his ongoing commitment and deep connection to his roots and the local community.

In addition to this ceremonial role, Atiku Abubakar also demonstrated his compassion and leadership by leading members of the Adamawa Emirate Council on a visit to the victims of the Yola Main Market fire earlier in the day. The market, a central hub for commerce in the region, was recently devastated by a severe fire, impacting numerous traders and local businesses.

During the visit, Atiku and the council members offered their condolences and support to those affected by the disaster, emphasizing the community’s resilience and the importance of solidarity in times of crisis. This gesture of empathy was well received by the victims, who expressed their gratitude for the concern and support shown by the former Vice President and the council.
