Uba Sani Launches Reconstruction of Binawa Bridge in Kaduna

Governor Uba Sani has commenced the reconstruction of the Binawa Bridge in Kauru Local Government Area, Kaduna State, which had been abandoned for over 14 years. The bridge connects Mariri, Geshere, Binawa, and other communities, and its collapse had severely disrupted movement and socio-economic activities.

The groundbreaking ceremony was performed by Sunday Marshall Katung, the Senator representing Kaduna South Senatorial District, who emphasized the bridge's importance for transportation and access to markets, schools, and healthcare. Katung expressed hope for further development projects, including the Kibangari bridge.

Dr Abdullahi Baba Ahmad, Managing Director of the Kaduna State Roads Agency (KADRA), stated that the project would enhance connectivity and support local businesses. Zakari Haruna Chawai, the member representing Kauru/Chawai Federal Constituency, indicated that the project is expected to be completed within two to three months and described it as a gift to the LGA.

Residents expressed gratitude for the reconstruction, which they believe will positively impact their economic activities.
