He opined that Almustapha as a security expert and top government official in the past has wealth of experience and ideas on how to surmount the nation’s problems.
“Major Almustapha is a security expert. When it comes to economy, he was the bone behind PTF. Many people don’t know that he was the bone behind the establishment of PTF.
“And PTF has helped a lot in terms of education, medicine, infrastructure, roads and almost every angle”. He said.
