Kaduna Has Aligned With Renewed Hope Agenda — Uba Sani

Governor Uba Sani of Kaduna State has said that the Renewed Hope Agenda of President Bola Tinubu’s administration is not a mere political slogan but structured national rescue plan.

The governor maintained that the Agenda was ‘’aimed at restoring macroeconomic balance, stimulating production, creating employment, and lifting millions from poverty.

‘’It seeks to create the enabling conditions in which enterprise can thrive, capital can find confidence, and every Nigerian, irrespective of place of birth, state of origin, social or religious persuasions, can aspire to dignity and prosperity,’’ he added.

Governor Uba Sani said this in his capacity as Chief Host at the 65th Independence Anniversary Lecture, organised by Arewa Think Tank, themed “The Journey So Far with the Renewed Hope Agenda in View.”

He said that Kaduna State has embraced the spirit and substance of the Renewed Hope Agenda, adding that his administration has completed some abandoned projects and it was on the verge of completing all.

According to him, the impact of the Renewed Hope Agenda was steadily unfolding across the sectors of the economy and the nation’s socio-political landscape.

‘’We have seen renewed momentum in fiscal reform, in security management, in educational expansion, and in infrastructure renewal. Across the North, a quiet renaissance is taking root.

‘’Roads and bridges are knitting communities closer; markets are reawakening; the long-neglected rural economy is stirring again. In agriculture, the very lifeblood of the North, we are witnessing an unprecedented transformation.

‘’Farmers now work with solar-powered irrigation systems and mechanised implements; climate-smart innovations are redefining rural livelihoods; agribusiness is replacing subsistence farming.

‘’No administration in our history has empowered subnational governments in agricultural transformation as profoundly as President Tinubu’s,’’ the governor disclosed.

Emphasising that his administration was on the verge of completing all abandoned projects, the governor argued that he was doing so not for applause, but to restore faith in governance. We are investing in enduring institutions rather than transient monuments.

‘’We are extending opportunity to those whom fortune has overlooked, and we are building a state defined by inclusion, discipline, and accountability. Our purpose is clear: to make Kaduna a model of pragmatic reform and human-centred development within the larger federation,’’ he recalled.
