SENATOR ABDULFATAI BUHARI — Leadership is often misconstrued as a position of power, where one wields authority and dictates the pace. However, true leadership is about taking care of those in your charge, prioritising their needs, and empowering them to thrive.
This philosophy is embodied in the words of renowned leadership expert, John C. Maxwell, who said, “A leader is one who knows the way, goes the way, and shows the way.” This quote resonates deeply with the exemplary stewardship of Senator AbdulFatai Buhari, who has consistently demonstrated a remarkable commitment to serving his senatorial district and beyond.
Senator Buhari’s approach to leadership is a testament to the fact that being in charge is not about personal gain or prestige, but about responsibility and accountability.
