He gained a BA in History from the University of Sokoto, a Masters in International Affairs and Diplomacy from Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria, and a Ph.D in International Relations from the University of Abuja.[1] he is also a fellow of the prestigious Harvard University in the USA Early careerAbba Sayyadi Ruma obtained a position as information Officer in Katsina State, and became Special Adviser to Saidu Barda, the Governor of Katsina State in 1992.[1] Between 1999 and 2003, Abba Sayyadi Ruma was Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Rascom Network Ltd, a company based in Kaduna that consults on research and development.[3] Abba Sayyadi Ruma was the Chairman of Batsari Local Government Area in Katsina State in 2003, and strongly supported the PDP candidates.[4] He became Secretary to the Katsina State Government in 2003, when Umaru Musa Yar'Adua was governor.[1] He was appointed Minister of State in the Federal Ministry of Education in 2005 under Dr. Obiageli Ezekwesili, and in 2007 briefly became Federal Minister of Education when Ezekwesili left to take up a World Bank job.[5] He is married to Hajiya Rabi and has 8 children. Minister of Agriculture and Water ResourcesIn 2007, President Umaru Musa Yar'Adua appointed Dr. Abba Ruma Minister of Agriculture and Water Resources.[6] Abba Sayyadi Ruma is seen as one of Yar'Adua's most esteemed colleagues.[7] It had been expected that Yar'Adua would appoint Ruma as minister of education, since Ruma had previously served as minister of state for education and was widely believed to be part of the reform process.[8] In May 2008, Ruma denied reports that Nigeria was suffering from a food crisis, saying the only problem was with the rising cost of rice. He defended his ministry's decision to centralize distribution of fertilizer rather than relying on private enterprise, and noted that the government was taking action to improve access to credit by farmers and to supply more tractors. But the government would import rice if needed to cushion cost increases.[9] In July 2009, talking to a stakeholders' roundtable of the National Food Security Advocacy Group, he said that in the past middlemen contractors and politicians skimmed off subsidies for fertilizers which did not get to the farmers in time for the planting season, and then were grossly overpriced.[10] Speaking to journalists in November 2009 on the government’s Public Private Partnership in the area of rice production, Ruma explained the government was looking at linking up large-scale private sector operators with farmer's cooperative groups to achieve economies of scale, and was providing funds for small-scale irrigation with focus on the most productive areas. N200 billion was available for farmer's credit, but release of the funds would be carefully monitored to ensure it went to the intended recipients.[11] In November 2009, Abba Sayyadi Ruma was considered to be leader of a faction of the People's Democratic Party (PDP) opposed to the reelection in 2011 of Governor Ibrahim Shema.[12] His "Abuja Group", which included Dr. Tanimu Yakubu, Senator Garba Yakubu Lado and businessman Dahiru Mangal, were all said to be acolytes of Yar’Adua.[13] References1. ^1 2 3 {{cite web |url = http://www.abbasayyadiruma.com/index.html |title = Welcome |publisher = Abba Sayyadi Ruma |accessdate = 2009-12-15 |deadurl = yes |archiveurl = https://web.archive.org/web/20100326185734/http://www.abbasayyadiruma.com/index.html |archivedate = 26 March 2010 |df = dmy-all}} {{Cabinet of President Umaru Yar'Adua}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Ruma, Abba Sayyadi}}2. ^{{cite web |url=http://allafrica.com/stories/201003171041.html |title=Jonathan Sacks Ministers |work=Vanguard |author=Daniel Idonor |date=17 March 2010 |accessdate=2010-04-14| archiveurl= https://web.archive.org/web/20100322203116/http://allafrica.com/stories/201003171041.html| archivedate= 22 March 2010 | deadurl= no}} 3. ^1 {{cite web |url=http://www.unesco.org/delegates/nigeria/MinisterofAgricultureAndWaterResources.html |title=Dr. Sayyadi Abba Ruma |publisher=UNESCO |accessdate=2009-12-15| archiveurl= https://web.archive.org/web/20091112060253/http://www.unesco.org/delegates/nigeria/MinisterofAgricultureAndWaterResources.html| archivedate= 12 November 2009 | deadurl= no}} 4. ^{{cite web |url=http://elendureports.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=619&Itemid=33 |title=Agric Minister Invests Hundreds of Millions in the Stock Exchange in One Day |author=Jonathan Elendu |date=12 March 2008 |publisher=ElenduReports |accessdate=2009-12-15}} 5. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.thesourceng.com/PropellersJune152009.htm |date=15 June 2009 |title=Propellers of the Yar’Adua Wheel! |publisher=The Source Magazine |accessdate=2009-12-16 }}{{dead link|date=October 2016 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }} 6. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.africanews.com/site/Nigeria_YarAdua_names_cabinet/list_messages/10239 |title=Yar'Adua names cabinet |date=27 July 2007 |publisher=Africa News |accessdate=2009-12-15 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20110928064504/http://www.africanews.com/site/Nigeria_YarAdua_names_cabinet/list_messages/10239 |archivedate=28 September 2011 }} 7. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.ngrguardiannews.com/sunday_magazine/article02//indexn3_html?pdate=141208&ptitle=Most%20Influential%20Members%20Of%20President%20Yar'Adua's%20Inner%20Circle&cpdate=141208 |date=14 December 2008 |title=Most Influential Members Of President Yar'Adua's Inner Circle |author=Martins Oloja |publisher=Guardian |accessdate=2009-12-15 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20061209163547/http://www.ngrguardiannews.com/sunday_magazine/article02 |archivedate=9 December 2006 |df=dmy }} 8. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.entrepreneur.com/tradejournals/article/206620428.html |title=Nigeria - The Government. |date=24 August 2009 |publisher=Entrepreneur |accessdate=2009-12-15}} 9. ^{{cite web |url=http://allafrica.com/stories/200805250009.html |publisher=Leadership (Abuja) |title=No Food Crisis in Nigeria - Ruma |author=Grace Azubuike |date=25 May 2008 |accessdate=2009-12-15}} 10. ^{{cite web |url=http://allafrica.com/stories/200907300139.html |title='The Country's Agric Budget Exceeds Maputo Target' |publisher=ThisDay |author=Etim Imisim |date=29 July 2009 |accessdate=2009-12-15}} 11. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.compassnews.net/Ng/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=34138:benefits-of-the-rice-mills-project-to-farmers-by-abba-ruma&catid=110:agriculture&Itemid=714 |title=Benefits of the rice mills project to farmers, by Abba Ruma |date=20 November 2009 |publisher=Nigerian Compass |accessdate=2009-12-15}} 12. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.sunday.dailytrust.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=1850:tasius-death-deepens-katsina-pdp-crisis&catid=32:sunday-politics&Itemid=31 |title=Tasiu’s death deepens Katsina PDP crisis |author=Lawal Ibrahim (Katsina) & Aliyu Machika |date=7 November 2009 |publisher=Sunday Trust |accessdate=2009-12-15 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20091216042000/http://www.sunday.dailytrust.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=1850%3Atasius-death-deepens-katsina-pdp-crisis&catid=32%3Asunday-politics&Itemid=31 |archivedate=16 December 2009 |df=dmy }} 13. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.peoplesdaily-online.com/index.php/component/content/article/2389-governor-weeps- |title=Governor weeps ...
