Road Project: Gov Sani fulfils 50-year-old promise
Governor Uba Sani has brought succour to the 50-year quest of Danbushiya village in the Millennium City in Chikun local government, by commencing the construction of a 15-kilometre road when he assumed office.
Sarkin Danbushiya, Alhaji Muktar Haruna, disclosed this on Wednesday when the Governor went on an inspection tour of the Keke-Danbushiya road project, which will link over 15 communities.
The Village Head said that the people of the community have been promised that the road will be constructed since the military era, adding that the dream only came true when Governor Uba Sani came on board.
Alhaji Muktar thanked the Governor for bringing dividends of democracy to the area, which include a Primary Healthcare Centre, schools and enhanced security.
He further said that lessons have commenced in the Science Secondary School that Governor Uba Sani built in the area, as students are presently receiving instructions in the school.
According to him, the Governor has so demonstrated love for the people of the area, so much that ‘’We want the name to change from ’Millennium City’’ to ‘’Governor Uba Sani Millennium City’’
Speaking at the event, Governor Uba Sani recalled that when he came on board, ‘’we made it clear to everyone that we will try as much as possible to take development to every part of Kaduna State.’’
The Governor said that he met with the people of Danbushiya, ‘’sat down with them, discussed with them and realised that this is a very important road that links about 15 communities.’’
‘’As a Government, we found it extremely important and necessary to put in a lot of money, to ensure that we construct an asphaltic road that will connect these communities,’’ he added.
The Governor, who promised that the road would be commissioned in nine months’ time, commended the community for giving the contractor all necessary support.
Governor Uba Sani also inspected the ongoing reconstruction of Ahmadu Bello Stadium, which will become a safer and more modern sports arena that meets international standards when completed.
He also inspected the ongoing renovation of a Primary Healthcare Centre at Mando community in Igabi local government area.
