On the occasion of the nation’s 65th anniversary of independence, Kaduna State governor Uba Sani expressed his gratitude to Nigerians.
Governor Sani stated in his goodwill message that President Bola Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda will keep Nigeria’s future in perspective.
He claimed that the country is going through radical reforms to restore prosperity, promote democracy, and promote peace.
The governor added that the Renewed Hope Agenda is fully supported by Kaduna State, just as he claimed that his administration in Kaduna is implementing vision through strategic and person-centred investment.
With the launching of 85 urban and rural road projects covering 785 kilometres across the state and regenerating the economic potential of previously marginalized communities, Governor Sani’s administration placed emphasis on infrastructure as the driving force behind development.

He added that under his administration, the entire educational system is being overhauled to ensure that every child, regardless of background, has access to quality education.
Infrastructure upgrades, teacher training, and the integration of digital tools are some examples of these reforms.
Additionally, 535 schools that were previously closed due to insecurity have been reopened, while the Kaduna State Government has successfully returned over 10, 728 students to the classroom through the Reaching Out-of-School Children Project.
“An overwhelming majority of these have been completed, facilitating trade, reducing travel time, and improving farmers’ and business access to markets.” In order to encourage investment and improve living conditions, we are rebuilding urban roads, bridges, and essential public utilities.
Our Rural Revitalization Agenda restores the economic potential of previously underdeveloped communities.
We are seeing a resurgence of local commerce and a renewed sense of community confidence as a result of the reopening of important markets like the Birnin Gwari Livestock Market and the Kidandan Market in Giwa.
More than 500, 000 acres of farmland have been reclaimed, enabling our farmers to produce more food while boosting the state’s food security.
Education and health are not luxuries; they are our future’s pillars, according to Mandela. Every child, regardless of background, has access to high-quality education, and we are implementing a comprehensive reform of our educational system. This includes the integration of digital tools, teacher training, and infrastructure upgrades.
We have successfully returned over 10, 728 students to the classroom as a result of the Reaching Out-of-School Children Project. Additionally, we have reopened 535 schools that were previously closed because of insecurity, confirming our position that education is a privilege, according to the governor.
The governor cited the accomplishments as evidence of the government’s commitment to creating a safe, strong, and inclusive Kaduna, noting that the government’s and people’s cooperation is a shared responsibility.
