President Muhammadu Buhari, on Thursday, August 27, 2020, rejoiced with Nigerian-born Kaycee Madu who was appointed Minister of Justice and Solicitor General for the Government of Alberta in Canada.
In a report gathered by EyewitnessMedia, Buhari’s congratulatory message was contained in a statement by his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina.
The statement was titled “President Buhari congratulates Nigerian born Kaycee Madu appointed Minister of Justice and Solicitor General for the Government in Alberta, Canada.”
Adesina quoted the President as describing the development as “landmark and historic”.
“Madu makes history as the first African born provincial Minister in Canadian history and is also the Provincial Secretary and Keeper of the Great Seal of the Province of Alberta.
“President Buhari describes the honour as ‘landmark and historic,’ saying it once again pedestals people of Nigerian descent as go-getters, who distinguish themselves from different walks of life.
“The President says as the first Black Justice Minister and Solicitor-General in Canada, Madu has written himself into history books, and urges Nigerians, both at home and abroad, to remain good ambassadors of their country.”
