In a statement on Monday, the Governor said the honour is well-deserved for Alhaji Yasin who has served and is still serving meritoriously at various levels, including as Global Vice President of the International Transport Federation.

“The honour is indeed well-deserving. I join family, friends and associates to rejoice with Alhaji Yasin as he received honorary doctoral degree in Public Administration. Alhaji Yasin has clearly earned his stripes, including in helping the poor and the vulnerable back home in Kwara State. The people and government of Kwara State are therefore proud to associate with his successes,” the Governor said.

“I pray the Almighty Allah to continue to protect and grant him good health and long life in his commitment to good cause.”
