Kaduna State Governor, Senator Uba Sani, has expressed profound gratitude to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for the landmark signing of the Northwest Development Commission Bill. He described it as “a decisive step to pull the North West back from the brink.”
Governor Sani extended commendation and well wishes in a statement on Wednesday, 24th July 2024.
“I wish to express my profound gratitude to our dear President, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, for signing the Northwest Development Bill into law. This is no doubt, the most significant piece of news I have received in decades. It clearly demonstrates President Tinubu’s deep concern for the North West and commitment to addressing its multifaceted developmental and security challenges,” Governor Sani said.
The Governor further lauded President Tinubu for his “uncommon support to State Governments in the North to effectively tackle their myriad challenges and set the region on the path to sustainable growth and development.”
The Governor urged leaders and people of the North West to see the signing of the Northwest Development Commission Bill into law as a call to action.
“We must come together and fashion a Marshall Plan for the development of the North West. Our plan must be people-driven and all-inclusive. The people that will be saddled with the responsibility of running the Northwest Development Commission must be men and women of transparent honesty, knowledgeable, creative, and innovative. There must be no room for incompetence and lethargy,” Senator Sani said.
The Northwest Development Commission was established to address the challenges facing the seven states in the North West geopolitical zone, with the aim of bringing the Federal Government closer to people in all North Western states.
