Kaduna State Governor, Uba Sani has warned Nigerians to beware of some opposition elements trying to truncate democracy in the country. The governor gave this warning on Friday when he hosted the Presidential Media Team, on a tour of federal government projects in the North-West.
The team led by the Presidential spokesman, Bayo Onanuga, commended the infrastructure development initiatives of President Bola Tinubu and Governor Uba Sani of Kaduna State. According to a release by Abiodun Oladunjoye, Director (Information & Public Relations), State House, the team continued its inspection with visits to several federal and state government projects.
These included the 35-kilometre Gadan-Gayam, Gwaraji, and Kujama roads linking 76 farming communities in Igabi, Kajuru, and Chikun Local Government Areas; the multi-billion-naira Skills Acquisition Centre; and the 300-bed capacity Bola Ahmed Tinubu Specialist Hospital.
Other members of the team included Mr Sunday Dare, Special Adviser to the President on Media and Public Communications; Tunde Rahman, Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Special Duties; Otega Ogra, Senior Special Assistant to the President on Digital Engagement and New Media; and Tope Ajayi, Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity.
The tour, initiated by the Governor Hope Uzodimma-led Renewed Hope Ambassadors, also featured officials from the Federal Ministries of Transportation and Works, as well as Abdullahi Tanko Yakasai, the Senior Special Assistant (SSA) to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu on Community Engagement in the North-West.
Speaking at a state banquet for the team and over 50 journalists, Onanuga described the transformation in Kaduna State as a clear reflection of improved funding to subnational governments under President Tinubu’s administration.
He noted that the scale and pace of infrastructural development across the state point to a deliberate and effective deployment of increased financial resources made available to states as a result of key fiscal reforms by the federal government.
He emphasised that Kaduna’s ongoing infrastructure revolution as demonstrated in road construction, urban renewal, and public service upgrades demonstrates how enhanced allocations to subnational governments are translating into tangible benefits for citizens.
