Read his statement below:
"Before I concluded my Visit to Kano State yesterday I commissioned two factories: the Gerawa Oil Mills Limited, and the Fullmark Rice Mills. Both are fully indigenous companies, and testament to the success of our efforts at creating an enabling environment for investment in Nigeria.
"Earlier I had spent time meeting with religious leaders in Kano. We discussed issues relating to law enforcement, the fight against corruption, and the growing problem of drug abuse in Nigeria, especially among our youth. We will go after those who sell and distribute these illicit substances.
"I am on the whole very grateful for the very enthusiastic welcome I received in Kano. As I said at the dinner reception for me on Wednesday night, I think it has also sent a clear message to the opposition. I'm deeply and eternally grateful to God and the people of Kano for the complete trust they have in me.
"As I've repeatedly said, the only way I can repay Nigeria and Nigerians for their faith in me, is to completely dedicate myself to serving you. I will not let you down. We will sustain the fight against Boko Haram and against corruption, and we will continue to reform the economy and create an enabling environment for jobs and investment.
