Kaduna State Governor Uba Sani has flagged-off the construction of the 21.7km Anchau-Gadas-Palla road which links 32 villages in Kubau and Ikara local government areas of the state.
The groundbreaking ceremony was part of activities lined up to mark Governor Sani’s 100 days in office.
Speaking at Anchau, the headquarters of Kubau local government, Governor Sani highlighted the importance of the road project in addressing transportation challenges faced by the 32 communities along the route.
He said the road would not only facilitate movement of people but also enhance the transportation of agricultural produce from farms to markets, ultimately boosting rural development and the local economy.
The governor said: “The reason we have decided to come this morning for this groundbreaking for the construction of the 22 km road is simply because we know the significance of this very road. The people of Kubau local government and Ikara local government had approached us during our campaign and informed us about the importance of this road.”
Speaking on behalf of the contractors, Idris Adewole assured the governor that the construction process would actively involve the people of Kubau and Ikara.
Adewole requested the support and cooperation of traditional and religious leaders in ensuring the successful execution of the project within the designated timeframe.
