Katsina State Governor, Malam @dikko_radda , has congratulated the Director-General of the Katsina State Directorate of Information and Communication Technology, KATDICT, @9aufal Ahmad, on his conferment of the traditional title of Gamzakin Katsina.
Governor Radda described the conferment as a well-deserved honour that recognizes Naufal Ahmad's dedication, innovation, and commitment to the development of Katsina State.
The Governor said the title of Gamzaki, which symbolizes guidance and illumination, perfectly reflects Naufal's role in driving the state's digital transformation agenda.
He noted that under Naufal's leadership, KATDICT has advanced technology-driven public service, promoted digital skills, and created new opportunities for young people in technology and innovation.
Governor Radda said the honour affirms the value of selfless service and urged the new Gamzakin Katsina to see the title as a call to greater service with humility and dedication.
The Governor thanked HRH, the Emir of Katsina, Alhaji Abdulmumini Kabir Usman, for the befitting honour bestowed on Naufal Ahmad. He said the conferment speaks volumes of the Emirate's commitment to recognizing and encouraging young professionals driving the progress of Katsina State.
He wished him continued wisdom and success in service to Katsina State and Nigeria.
