NANS President Akinteye Afeez Advocates for Infrastructure Protection

Akinteye Afeez, the President of the National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS), called on Kaduna youths to support and protect infrastructure projects initiated by the Kaduna State Government, highlighting their significance for education, mobility, and future opportunities. Afeez made this appeal during an inspection of ongoing and completed projects, including the Kabala Costain-Aliyu Makama Link Road, on Saturday.

He commended the state government for its road infrastructure, stating that improved road networks facilitate easier movement for students and residents, enhancing access to essential services. Afeez expressed satisfaction with the quality of the inspected projects and noted the importance of the ongoing rehabilitation of the Ahmadu Bello Stadium, which is expected to be completed in November.

He urged the government to sustain these projects and emphasized the need for youths to protect public infrastructure, as neglect would ultimately harm them. Dr Abdullahi Baba Ahmed, Managing Director of the Kaduna State Roads Agency, reported that the state government has initiated 116 new road projects covering approximately 1,400 kilometers across 23 local government areas.
