What Manner of Governor Will Patrick Yakowa Be?

By MARYAM MUSA

 He looks like a truly reserved and unassuming gentleman. He is essentially not a politician, but a bureaucrat. He does not seem to be inordinately ambitious nor in a hurry to achieve fame. He is a devout Christian of the Roman Catholic denomination;  a Knight of St Mulumba (KSM). Governor Patrick Ibrahim Yakowa was born into a Muslim home, but later converted to Christianity. Yakowa, who hails from Jema'a local government area of Kaduna State, is Kagoma by tribe.
