Uba Sani Addresses Kaduna's Potential and Security Issues

Uba Sani, the Governor of Kaduna State, addressed the immense potential of the state while acknowledging the significant security challenges it faces. Speaking at a workshop organized by the Nigerian Institute of Public Relations in Kaduna, he emphasized the need for urgent attention to infrastructure gaps and weak social indicators.

Sani outlined his administration's approach, which is structured around seven pillars, including security, infrastructure development, and human capital development. He noted the establishment of military bases in troubled areas like Giwa and Birnin Gwari to enhance security and reduce crime.

The governor disclosed that 20,000 hectares of farmland have been reclaimed to enable farmers to return to previously inaccessible areas, and the government has resettled 1,000 displaced persons while continuing to support 117,000 internally displaced individuals, particularly women and children. Additionally, he highlighted progress in the education sector, including the construction of 736 classrooms and the recruitment of 10,000 teachers.
