A first-class graduate of the Ahmadu Bello University, Safiyu Haruna Mallam Madori, has been awarded an oversea scholarship by the Governor of Jigawa State, Badaru Abubakar.

Madori became the first “first-class graduate” of the institution after 58 years.

Safiyu Haruna appreciated the Governor and all stakeholders for the gesture and promised to be a good ambassador of the state.
