NANS Commends Tinubu and Umahi for Kano Bypass Project

The National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) praised President Bola Tinubu and Minister of Works David Umahi for the construction of the Northern Bypass in Kano State. NANS President Comrade Afeez Akinteye led a delegation to inspect the project, which connects ten tertiary institutions across the North-Western states, including Katsina and Zamfara.

Akinteye noted that the bypass, a 69.4-kilometre dual carriageway featuring three flyovers and seven bridges, is expected to alleviate heavy traffic congestion in Kano, particularly for students traveling to their campuses. He commended the government for compensating farmers whose lands were acquired for the project and urged for timely completion.

Akinteye emphasized the importance of evaluating government projects that directly impact students, highlighting the administration's commitment to infrastructural development under the Renewed Hope initiative.
