He urged Nigerians to invest in human capacity development, saying he deliberately invested in developing his capacity because he wanted to be a good public speaker because of his position.

 

 

Alaafin said, “When I was in Usman Dan Fodio University, I single-handedly, as Chancellor, sponsored 200 indigent students to study courses of their choice.

 

 

“If you empty your pocket and put it on your head, that is a good investment. Anywhere I speak in the world, recalling dates, times and events, people thought I was using juju because my brain is sharp.

 

 

“But it is because I want to be a master in public speaking. Whatever you want in life and you put your mind there and ask God to do it for you, he will do it for you.”
