Tinubu's Government Enhances Northern Nigeria's Infrastructure

The article outlines the infrastructural improvements along the Abuja-Kaduna-Zaria-Kano road, as observed by a young traveler, Hadassah Chatti Alwai. It notes that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu's administration has initiated several projects aimed at enhancing transportation in Northern Nigeria.

These include the rehabilitation and expansion of major highways and the construction of rail corridors, such as the trans-Sahara rail corridor, which connects various states and promotes trade. The article mentions that the Northern region has received significant attention in terms of federal projects, with 48,260 special intervention projects located in the Northwest, including states like Kaduna, Kano, Katsina, Jigawa, Kebbi, and Sokoto.

Despite these developments, there are criticisms regarding the perceived lack of equitable resource distribution and political favoritism towards the North, with some arguing that Tinubu's government has not adequately supported other regions.
