Uba Sani: I’ll leave Kaduna better than I met it

Governor Uba Sani has promised that  his administration is determined to leave Kaduna State better than how it  met it.

This informed why his government is  executing projects in critical sectors like education, health and agriculture.

The Governor further said that his administration  is ramping up the implementation of its  Rural Transformation Programme,  as it has initiated over 78 road projects across Kaduna State since assuming office.

The Governor who  reiterated that these projects are progressing well, with contractors adequately funded to meet project deadlines, said that his   focus is to connect ‘’ local communities to provide social and economic benefits.’’

He made the commitment at the ground breaking for the construction and upgrading of Zaria township roads,  from Magajiya Junction to Kasuwan Amaru, with a link to Unguwan Liman/Albarkawa road intersection and Audi to Kako roads, in Zaria local government.

‘’When completed, these Zaria Township Roads will serve a significant population of Zaria city, predominantly the urban poor. Job opportunities would be created. Commercial activities will  significantly improve, while security will be enhanced in the city and its surroundings,’’ he promised.

According to him, Zaria  is too important to be left in its present state, adding that   the ground breaking is ‘’another demonstration of our firm commitment to the construction of new road networks, as well as the expansion, repair and maintenance of existing road networks to ease transportation and enhance businesses across the state.‘’

‘’The road from Audi to Kako on the outskirts of Zaria City connects the predominantly farming communities. Our administration is dedicated to promoting accelerated development by extending infrastructure to all local government areas, supporting our communities in achieving rapid economic growth, addressing infrastructure deficits, curbing rural-urban migration, and improving the quality of life for our people,’’ he assured.

Speaking earlier, the Chairman of Zaria local government, Engr Jamil Ahmad thanked the Governor for all the  developmental projects that he been executing in the area.

The Chairman pledged the total support of Zaria people to the Senator Uba Sani-led administration, promising  that  the people will increase the number of votes that they gave the Governor in the coming election.

In his remarks, the Emir of Zazzau, Ambassador Ahmed Nuhu Bamalli welcomed  Governor Uba Sani home, pointing out that the Governor is a son-of-the-soil.

The Emir who is the Chairman of Kaduna State Council of Chiefs,  also commended the Governor for executing developmental projects across board.
