KADUNA STATE GOVERNMENT FLAGS OFF CONSTRUCTION OF TOWNSHIP ROADS
I was deeply humbled by the warmth, affection and overwhelming reception accorded to me by the good people of Zaria and Sabon Gari as we flagged off the construction of eleven strategic township roads across four locations under Phase II of our Urban Renewal and Rural
Transformation Programme. That thousands of our people stood patiently in the rain to welcome us was more than a ceremonial gesture; it was a powerful expression of hope, resilience and confidence in our shared vision for a greater Kaduna State. I sincerely thank the people of Zaria and Sabon Gari for their hospitality, goodwill and unwavering belief in our administration. Their trust continues to inspire us to serve with humility, diligence and an even greater sense of responsibility.
The roads, to be constructed by Mothercat Limited and CGC Nigeria Limited, will significantly improve connectivity, ease the movement of people and goods, stimulate commerce, expand economic opportunities and enhance the quality of life across the benefiting communities. More importantly, they reaffirm our unwavering commitment to equitable and inclusive development in every part of Kaduna State.
I am profoundly grateful to the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Rt. Hon. Abbas Tajudeen, GCON; the Emir of Zazzau, His Highness Amb. Ahmed Nuhu Bamalli; former Governor Ramalan Yero; and other distinguished leaders and stakeholders whose presence and generous words of encouragement reflected our collective determination to advance the development of Zaria and Kaduna State.
Since assuming office on 29 May 2023, our administration has initiated 150 road projects spanning over 1,355 kilometres across the 23 Local Government Areas of Kaduna State, with the overwhelming majority already completed. Earlier this year, we commissioned the Audi–Kako, Magajiya–Kasuwan Amaru, Dogon Bauchi–Lakiyeyi and Hanwan Yan Goro roads in Zaria. Beyond road infrastructure, we have continued to invest substantially in healthcare, education, agriculture and other critical sectors because our vision extends beyond constructing roads; it is about connecting communities to opportunity, restoring public confidence and building a more prosperous, inclusive and united Kaduna State where no community is left behind.
The roads flagged off today are:
1. Babban Dodo–Durumi–Kofan Kuyanbana Road
2. Rimin Tsiwa–Kofan Gayan (Secretariat–Albarkawa–Kaura) Road
3. Maje Road, Tudun Wada
4. Turunku Road (Sabon Gari)
5. Waff Road (Sabon Gari)
6. Layin Radio Road, Tudun Wada
7. Aba Road, Tudun Wada
