Two Northern civil society organisations, the Northern Accountability League (NAL) and the Uba Sani Legacy Projects Solidarity Assembly (ULEPSA), have praised Governor Uba Sani's administration in Kaduna State for its record-breaking rollout of road projects across the state. The groups described the governor's investment in infrastructure as "a revolution in inclusion, mobility, and economic revival."
At a joint press conference held at the historic Arewa House in Kaduna, the groups hailed Governor Sani's unprecedented initiative, saying he has initiated over 78 road projects covering 775 kilometres in under two years. "Twelve key urban roads have already been completed and commissioned," said Mallam Yusuf Ibrahim, Convener of the Northern Accountability League.
The completed projects include the Garba Ja Abdulkadir Road, Water Intake Road, Sultan-Surame Road, Bissau Road, and several strategic township roads in Unguwan Muazu, Kawo Layout, and others. "These roads are not mere concrete—they are arteries of opportunity, inclusion, and social justice," added Khadija Mohammed of ULEPSA.
The groups also commended Governor Sani for extending development to long-neglected rural communities. Highlighted projects include the 21.7km Anchau–Gadas–Palla Road, 18km Sanga–Jema’a Road, 10.2km Dan Makwarwa–Hunkuyi Road, and the transformative 35km Gadan Gayan–Gwaraji–Kujama Junction Road.
Calling on federal authorities and international partners to support Kaduna's infrastructure push, the groups hailed Governor Uba Sani as "a builder, unifier, and visionary leader steering Kaduna towards peace and prosperity." The press conference concluded with a call for Nigerians to emulate Kaduna's development model and recognise infrastructure as a tool for both economic transformation and national unity.
The civil society organisations' praise for Governor Sani's administration is a testament to the impact of his policies on the lives of Kaduna State residents. As the state continues to experience rapid development, it remains to be seen how the governor's administration will continue to prioritize infrastructure development and other key sectors.
