Former Jigawa governor seeks establishment of more schools in Birnin-Kudu
First elected governor of Jigawa, Ali Sa’ad, has called for the establishment of more schools in remote areas of his hometown, Birnin-Kudu Local Government Area of Jigawa.
Mr Sa’ad made the call on Sunday during the Jigawa state
citizens engagement programme, introduced by Gov. Namadi administration held in Birnin-Kudu.
He observed that there were remote areas in Birnin-Kudu where children don’t go to school because of the distance between their communities and the schools available in other communities.
The former governor also appealed to the state government to establish dispensaries in all the nooks and crannies of the state, to enable citizens reap the dividends of democracy and promote quality healthcare delivery.
According to him, there is also the need for government to complete abandoned road projects that link communities, in order to boost businesses and ease access in the area.
On his part, Gov. Umar Namadi commended residents of Birnin-Kudu for submitting a document with their demands to the government.
He said, “This local government has broken a record by taking time to document their demands and submitted them to us today. We will surely study them and fulfill their wishes.”
He further appealed to residents of Jigawa to provide feedback to the government on development projects at all levels for proper monitoring.
The commissioner for information, youth, sport and culture, Sagir Musa, said the programme aimed at ensuring transparency in governance.
Mr Musa revealed that the Namadi administration’s quest for inclusion, initiated the programme to promote accountability in all political offices.
“This programme aims at providing the citizens a platform to interact and seek answers to pressing issues from their elected officials,” he explained.
Residents of the area have so far commended the administration for executing different projects in the area.
One of the residents, Umar Baba, appreciated the efforts of the governor in completing abandoned projects in the area.
Also, Abdulbaki Aminu, said the administration needed to do more in youth empowerment in the area, to reduce the high population of unemployed youths.
