The Southern Kaduna Peoples Union (SOKAPU) said it had renewed its commitment through consultations and lobbying for the creation of Gurara State following the House of Representatives decision to reopen submissions for state creation proposals.

With the fresh window provided by the House Committee on Constitution Review, SOKAPU said they are working tenaciously to refine its proposal to meet constitutional requirements.

Addressing a press conference in Kaduna, SOKAPU President Engr. Samuel Tabara said,  the union has set up a high-powered committee led by Barrister Mark Jacob to drive engagement with key stakeholders at both the state and national levels.

He said that the committee had secured endorsements from lawmakers and other influential figures in support of Gurara State’s creation.

The president however dismissed speculations that Governor Uba Sani is against the creation of Gurara State, citing documentary evidence of his support for a similar proposal—New Kaduna State.

“The notion that the governor is not in support of Gurara State is misleading. Available facts indicate otherwise. We urge our people to remain united and not allow misinformation to create division,” Tabai stated.

The proposed Gurara State is expected to comprise of 12 local government areas with a landmass larger than several existing states, and is rich in agricultural and mineral resources, reinforcing its viability as a standalone entity.

“With the House of Representatives reopening the process, SOKAPU is leaving no stone unturned in ensuring the proposal meets all necessary criteria. As the constitutional review process unfolds, the group remains optimistic that their long-standing aspiration will soon become a reality.”

He, therefore, called on all and sundry to support the clamour for the creation of Gurara State from the present Kaduna State.
