Kano State Governor, Engr. Abba Kabir Yusuf has taken his urban renewal initiative to the Sabon Gari axis, predominantly dominated by non-natives, with the reconstruction of Zungeru Road.

Governor Yusuf’s Chief Press Secretary,  Mustapha Muhammad, said the move was part of efforts to strengthen the urban renewal project.

Mustapha hinted that the 3.6 kilometre road project was initially awarded for construction during the second tenure of former Governor of the state, Senator Rabi’u Musa Kwankwaso, but abandoned by the preceding administration in the state.

Delivering his address during the flag-off, Governor Yusuf said the reconstruction of Zungeru Road is part of the government’s steadfastness in creating critical infrastructure for the better living of citizens of Kano.

He added that Kano, as an emerging megacity, deserves high-quality roads, assuring commitment of the government to enhance people’s lives through the execution of key developmental projects.

The governor tasked the contractor handling the road project to ensure timely completion and strict adherence to the stipulated rules and guidelines. He assured contractors in the state of prompt payment for contracts completed.

Governor Yusuf appreciated the support and cooperation of the Sabon-Gari Community to the present administration; urged for sustenance of the tempo for rapid socioeconomic development of Kano.
