He appreciated Allah for guiding him in diligently discharging his duties during his time as a Judicial officer under the FCT Judicial Service Committee.

“I also utilise this opportunity to express my ultimate gratitude to Allah, the Most High who has been guiding me more particularly in discharging my Atra Court Judge responsibilities judicially and judiciously.”
