GOV SANI LAUDS TINUBU FOR SIGNING NORTH WEST DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION BILL
Governor of Kaduna State, Uba Sani, commended President Bola Tinubu for signing the North West Development Commission Bill, describing it as a critical move to save the region from impending disaster.
The governor added in a statement released by Mohammed Shehu, his chief press secretary, that President Tinubu’s signing of the measure into law showed his genuine concern for the North West and his dedication to tackling its complex security and development issues.
He further lauded the President 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.”
Additionally, he urged leaders and people of the North-West to see the signing of the North West 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 who will be saddled with the responsibility of running the North-West Development Commission must be men and women of transparent honest, knowledgeable, creative and innovative. There must be no room for incompetence and lethargy,” Governor Sani said.
The North-West Development Commission was established to address the challenges facing the seven states in the North-West geopolitical zone to bring the Federal Government closer to people in all North Western states.
