Uba Sani: We Have Restored Hope to Marginalized Communities in Kaduna state

Governor of Kaduna State, Uba Sani, has declared that his administration has restored hope to marginalized communities across the state through inclusive governance and people oriented policies.

The governor made the remarks during the 2026 APC gubernatorial primary election affirmation, where he highlighted key achievements of his administration in the areas of infrastructure, agriculture, security, and youth empowerment.

According to Governor Uba Sani, communities that were previously neglected are now benefiting from the dividends of democracy as a result of deliberate efforts by his administration to extend development projects to hard to reach areas of the state.

He emphasized that agriculture remains a major pillar of Kaduna State’s economy, contributing over 47 percent to the state’s Gross Domestic Product, noting that his administration demonstrated its commitment to the sector by allocating 13 percent of the state budget to agriculture.

Speaking on security, the governor said Kaduna State has not witnessed any ethno religious crisis in the last three years, attributing the achievement to his administration’s commitment to justice, fairness, and inclusivity.

“Without justice, there can be no peace,” the governor stated, while reaffirming that his administration belongs to every citizen irrespective of ethnic, religious, or political affiliation.

On youth development, Governor Uba Sani disclosed that the state government will continue to initiate programmes aimed at creating opportunities for young people. He cited the establishment of three vocational training centres in Rigachikun, Soba, and Samaru Kataf as part of efforts to equip youths with practical skills for self-reliance and economic growth.

The governor also extended a hand of friendship to members of other political parties in the state, stressing that all stakeholders share a common responsibility in the collective struggle to move Kaduna State forward.

He congratulated all the party’s flag bearers emerging from the primary process and urged them not to take the confidence reposed in them by the party and the people for granted.

Kaduna Pilgrims Head For Makkah, Complete Madina Rituals

Kaduna State Pilgrims Welfare Agency will convey the last batch of pilgrims to Makkah on Friday in record time, after spending the mandatory four days in Madina.

A statement issued by the Chief Press Secretary, Malam Ibraheem Musa from Madina on Friday, attributed the evacuation to Governor Uba Sani’s adequate support to the Agency.

Quoting the Director of Operations of the pilgrims agency, Alhaji Abubakar Usman Yusuf, the statement noted that the Governor’s support enabled the commencement of early preparations for the pilgrimage, beginning with the weekly sensitization of intending pilgrims in Nigeria.

“The exercise educated our pilgrims on all aspects of Hajj, the rules of Saudi Arabia and how they should conduct themselves throughout the pilgrimage,” Abubakar added.
The statement argued that “that foundation laid the ground of the smooth conduct of all the Hajj rites in Madina,” adding that the Agency’s officials did not encounter much challenges with Kaduna State pilgrims.

The Director of Operations also commended the Kaduna State Hajj Delegation Committee under the leadership of Alhaji Abubakar Mustapha, former Head of Service, for giving over all guidance during the pilgrims’ sojourn at Madina.

Alhaji Abubakar recalled that the State Hajj Delegation had visited Malam Sani Garba, a pilgrim that was hospitalized at the Almiqati General Hospital in Madina, alongside staff of the Kaduna State Pilgrims Welfare Agency.

The statement further disclosed that Malam Sani has been discharged and has left for Makkah on Thursday.

The Director of Operations also commended the members of the Special Hajj Committee and the Management of Kaduna State Pilgrims Welfare Agency, for housing pilgrims at Misfalah district in Makkah, along Ibrahim Khalil Road, situated within a walkable distance to the Masjid al-Haram.

I am profoundly honoured and deeply humbled by the overwhelming confidence reposed in me by members of our great party, the All Progressives Congress (APC), following my emergence as the party’s gubernatorial flag bearer for the 2027 Kaduna State Governorship Election. The resounding affirmation of my candidacy, reflected in the 459,393 votes cast in support of our shared vision, is far more than a political endorsement; it is a solemn expression of collective faith in the ideals of unity, responsible leadership, and inclusive progress that bind us together as a people.

I extend my deepest gratitude to the leader of our great party and President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, His Excellency President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, whose steadfast leadership and unwavering commitment to national renewal continue to inspire confidence across our nation. I equally acknowledge the National Working Committee of our party, respected stakeholders, delegates, youth and women groups, and the countless loyal party faithful across Kaduna State whose trust and solidarity have made this moment possible.

This outcome renews our collective determination to redouble our efforts at building a Kaduna State defined by peace, security, economic vitality, social justice, and opportunity for all. I dedicate this victory to the resilient and dignified people of Kaduna State, and I reaffirm my commitment to serve with humility, fairness, courage, and compassion as we continue the important work of consolidating the gains achieved since 2023.

STATEMENT OF APPRECIATION TO PRESIDENT BOLA AHMED TINUBU, GCFR, ON THE AWARD OF STRATEGIC CONTRACTS WORTH OVER ₦1 TRILLION AND ₦178 BILLION IN KADUNA STATE

On behalf of the Government and people of Kaduna State, I extend our profound appreciation to His Excellency, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, and the Federal Executive Council for the gracious approval and award of transformative infrastructure contracts that will indelibly reshape the economic and social landscape of our state.

Foremost among these is the Kaduna Light Rail Project; an ambitious undertaking spanning a 30-kilometre corridor from Rigachikun to Sabon Tasha, alongside a 20-kilometre line from Millennium City to Rigasa, forming a 50-kilometre metropolitan network with an estimated value of One Trillion Naira. Complementing this is the critical reconstruction of the Mando–Kaduna–Birnin Gwari road, a 122-kilometre artery valued at ₦178 billion. Together, these projects represent not merely investments in infrastructure, but a deliberate re-engineering of mobility, security, and economic vitality across Kaduna State.

The Federal Government’s support for the light rail project is both historic and catalytic. It reinforces our vision of an integrated transport ecosystem, anchored by the 24-kilometre Bus Rapid Transit system currently underway. Kaduna has taken a pioneering role in Northern Nigeria by articulating a comprehensive State Transport Policy, one that privileges efficiency, safety, environmental sustainability, and affordability. Through initiatives such as subsidised Compressed Natural Gas buses, modern terminals, and structured transit corridors, we are systematically positioning Kaduna as a premier hub for transportation and logistics.

That Kaduna has been selected to lead this transformation; emerging as only the second state in the federation to embark on a light rail system, speaks to the confidence reposed in our vision and our capacity for execution. It is a testament to a leadership philosophy at the centre that recognises potential, rewards preparedness, and advances development without prejudice.

Equally significant is the rehabilitation of the Mando–Birnin Gwari road, a project imbued with both symbolic and practical importance. I recall, with clarity and respect, Mr. President’s visit to Birnin Gwari in the lead-up to the 2023 general elections, at a time when the area was beset by insecurity and infrastructural neglect. His promise then was unequivocal. Today, that promise is being fulfilled. This road will not only enhance connectivity but also strengthen security, facilitate agricultural productivity, and restore confidence to communities long burdened by isolation.

Kaduna State remains resolute in its commitment to the diligent execution of these projects. We view them not as isolated interventions, but as enduring legacies; foundations upon which a more prosperous, secure, and connected future will be built.

We thank Mr. President for his steadfast commitment to Kaduna State and to the equitable development of our nation.

Governor of Kaduna State

“IN KADUNA’s NEW BANQUET HALL, UBA SANI PARTNERS NIPR TO RECAST NIGERIA’s IMAGE”

By Ibrahim Jibo Yusuf

There are moments in the life of a polity when governance rises above routine administration and acquires a deeper symbolic resonance. Tuesday, April 21, 2026, in Kaduna, was one such moment; an occasion where structure became statement and public leadership found expression through deliberate, purposeful action. At the centre of this convergence stood Governor Uba Sani, whose administration continues to project a steady, reform-oriented vision for the state.

The inauguration of the new Banquet Hall at Sir Kashim Ibrahim House was, in immediate terms, the unveiling of a major public facility. Yet its broader significance lies in what it represents: a space intentionally designed not just for ceremonial use, but as a platform for engagement, policy dialogue, and institutional interaction. It reflects an understanding that governance today requires environments that can convene diverse actors: government officials, private sector leaders, civil society, and development partners, in pursuit of shared objectives.

Set on 2.7 hectares and covering about 5,000 square metres, the Banquet Hall embodies both scale and restraint. Its capacity, accommodating between 800 and 1,000 guests in banquet format and up to 1,300 in theatre arrangement, signals readiness for large-scale gatherings. However, the significance of the structure lies less in its size than in the intentionality of its design.

The facility integrates multiple meeting rooms, a conference suite, and a dedicated Governor’s Office, ensuring that governance functions can proceed seamlessly alongside formal events. Supporting infrastructure; including modern kitchens, service areas, and security systems aligned with global standards, further underscores a design philosophy anchored in efficiency and purpose. The result is a space where aesthetics and functionality are balanced, and where every element contributes to a coherent operational vision.

Naming the hall after Brigadier General Abba Kyari (rtd), a former Military Governor of the old North Central State, adds a historical dimension to the project. This decision reflects a deliberate effort to connect present initiatives with past leadership legacies, reinforcing continuity in governance. It also underscores the importance of institutional memory in shaping contemporary public administration.

The Banquet Hall’s significance became more evident as it hosted key events of the 3rd Nigerian Institute of Public Relations Week (Croc City 2026), organised by the Nigerian Institute of Public Relations. The theme,“Food Security: From Policy Paper to Plate – The Imperative of Public Relations”, captured a central challenge in Nigeria’s development landscape: translating policy intentions into measurable outcomes.

By hosting this event, Kaduna positioned itself as both a venue and a participant in a national conversation about governance, communication, and development. In a context where public trust is often shaped by perception as much as by performance, the role of communication becomes critical. Policies must not only be well designed; they must also be clearly articulated, widely understood, and consistently implemented.

The presence of His Excellency, Vice President Kashim Shettima, GCON, added national weight to the occasion. In his remarks, he framed the Banquet Hall as more than a physical structure, describing it as evidence of what disciplined leadership can achieve. This perspective situates the project within a broader narrative of governance reform and institutional strengthening.

Infrastructure, when guided by purpose, serves functions beyond its physical utility. It becomes a signal of intent, projecting confidence and inviting engagement. The Banquet Hall exemplifies this dynamic, acting as both a venue for dialogue and a symbol of Kaduna’s developmental aspirations.

Governor Uba Sani said at the launch of “Gani Fawehinmi and the Nigerian Press” in Lagos that he joined late Gani Fawehinmi and other activists to challenge INEC over the deregistration of political parties. He recalled that while the Federal High Court ruled against them, the Court of Appeal ruled in favor but INEC appealed to the Supreme Court. They eventually won after a 3-year legal battle, a victory he noted expanded Nigeria’s democratic space and strengthened its multiparty system. Governor Uba Sani is indeed one of the heroes of the democracy we enjoy today.

“A MAN FOR THE AGES”

By Sam Omatseye

It was a gathering of memory but also for memory because it was a time to toast an icon. Who better to do that than the people who fought with him, hoped with him, hid fears and cradled courage. Men who looked gun in the eye and underwrote death.

It was in honour of Gani Fawehinmi. His daughter, Basirat Fawehinmi-Biobaku, was presenting a book, Gani Fawehinmi and The Nigerian Press, to mark his birthday. And in attendance, of course, were the members of the two divisions of his soldiery: the media and civil rights. Media fighters from the Tell magazine and The News were like ghosts in the Abacha era.

They unleashed salvos but were not seen. So unseen were they that the goons besieged the American embassy in Lagos to confiscate copies of the magazines. They were matadors in the shadows. The goons thought they printed the subversive literature in the entrails of a foreign house. Their unfledged intelligence did not know, as Femi Falana mocked, that they might have unveiled them in the dingy lair of Mushin. In the hall were Kunle Ajibade, Nosa Igiebor, Dare Babarinsa, Onome Osifo-Whiskey. Femi Falana, Shehu Sani and a few others clocked in for civil rights. There was a lone politician and former governor in Iroko, that is Olusegun Mimiko. But the cynosure of all eyes was from the civil rights but also a member of the Fawehinmi family. He is the Kaduna State Governor, the ebullient Uba Sani. He told three stories that few knew. One, that he lived with the lawyer. “My room was next to that of Mama,” he says. Basirat also recalls her father often asking if Sani had eaten and if he was feeling at home. “He only allowed two people to live in his house. Myself and Femi Aborisade,” he recalled.

The other story was Gani’s scholarship scheme. He was one of the selection judges for the  scheme to fund indigent students through the university. Yours Truly was once a judge under Itse Sagay as chairman. Governor Sani said over three hundred youths benefited. “Gani asked me what I thought about the exercise. I told him I was not happy,” he replied. The reason was that only about 20 of the recipients were from northern Nigeria. Fawehinmi then commissioned him to set up a panel to interview potential candidates. He went to Zaria, and Gani flew over with two hundred cheques. There were over four hundred students eligible for the scholarships, and Comrade Sani persuaded him that all should benefit, and Fawehinmi obliged.

This story underlined the humanity of the man beyond his public image as a pugilist for justice and the law

Sani also told the story of his role in opening the political space for a truly multi-party democracy. In 1998, after the death of Sani Abacha, the Abdulsalam Abubakar transition regime decided to register only three political parties, the PDP, APP and AD. Fawehinmi had tried to persuade them to register others, including his Nigerian Conscience Party. Sani asked him if they should organise protest. Gani said no. We were now in a democracy, and he would entrust the matter to the outraged majesty of the courts. The matter was a three-year slog in the court. But he prevailed in 2002. That is why we have so many parties today in the country. Fawehinmi saw, as in the words of the Prophet Isaiah, that the children came to the birth but there was no strength to deliver them. Gani pulled it off with the law. He demonstrated, as Governor Sani stressed, that the court have saved justice for democracy and democracy for justice.

Gov Sani wanted the world to know that he is one of the sons of the civil rights man of war, who turned the law into a document of justice. He gave plaudits to those who soldiered for democratic justice, including some of the Tell and The News stars. He witnessed the Bagauda Kaltho’s hour of expiry who perished in a bomb. He and Shehu Sani might have walked into smithereens that hour. They were a few metres away from Kaltho’s martyr’s flesh. https://t.co/FhtsC2171c

GOVERNOR UBA SANI BOOSTS PILGRIMS’ WELFARE WITH CNG BUS FOR 2026 HAJJ OPERATIONS

Kaduna State Governor, Senator Uba Sani, has strengthened preparations for the 2026 Hajj exercise with the donation of a 38-seater hybrid Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) bus, equipped with 30 strap-hangers, to the Kaduna State Pilgrims Welfare Agency.

With a total capacity of 68 passengers per trip, the bus is expected to improve transportation logistics for intending pilgrims by enhancing efficiency, safety, and comfort during the Hajj airlift operations.

The initiative reflects Governor Uba Sani’s continued commitment to the welfare of Kaduna pilgrims and his administration’s resolve to provide strong operational support for a seamless Hajj exercise.

This follows earlier upgrades at the Agency’s Hajj Camp in Mando, including the construction of a tarred access road and facility improvements designed to provide pilgrims with greater comfort before departure.

Presenting the bus on behalf of the Kaduna State Government, Director of Operations, Kaduna Line, Malam Muhammad Sagir, described the gesture as another example of Governor Uba Sani’s people-focused leadership and commitment to excellence in service delivery.

Receiving the vehicle on behalf of the Executive Chairman of the Agency, Director of Operations, Malam Abubakar Usman Yusuf, expressed appreciation to the Kaduna State Government, describing the intervention as timely and impactful in strengthening the Agency’s operational capacity.

He also commended the Governor’s adoption of CNG-powered transportation solutions, noting that the initiative aligns with global best practices in sustainability and efficient public service delivery.

The Kaduna State Pilgrims Welfare Agency reaffirmed its readiness to deliver safe, efficient, and quality services to all intending pilgrims ahead of the 2026 Hajj exercise.
