In a message shared on Wednesday morning, Ribadu encouraged people not to merely focus on the festivities but to take a moment to contemplate while prayers are offered and warm greetings are exchanged.
On his first day in office, which was Monday, June 26, Ribadu formally assumed the position, taking over from Maj Gen. Babagana Monguno (Rtd.).
He donned a babbar riga and shoes gifted by the late Dr. Mahmud Tukur, as well as a cap given to him by the late IGP Ibrahim Coomassie.
