What may interest you to know is that a groundbreaking for the BRT was performed in 2023 at the verge of the exit of the previous administration without making any financial commitment which led to the stall of the entire project until when Senator @ubasanius made this commitment.

This is the Managing Director of the Kaduna State Transport Regulatory Authority (KASTRA) standing right in the place where the said ground-breaking ceremony was performed in March 2023 not 2022 as you said.

I’m safe to say without any fear of contradiction that Governor Uba Sani is starting this project from the scratch.

[Senator Uba Sani @ubasanius]

I received in audience today the World Bank AGILE Task Team Lead, Haj. Aisha Garba, the Director Secondary Education, FMoE, Haj. Binta Abdulkadir, the National Coordinator AGILE Nigeria, Haj. Amina Buba Haruna and their delegation. We shared thoughts on the ongoing partnership between the World Bank AGILE Task Team and the Kaduna State Government geared towards improving secondary education opportunities for adolescent girls aged between 10 and 20.

The team expressed satisfaction with the level of work done following assessment of completed and ongoing AGILE/Kaduna State Government collaborative projects. They commended Kaduna State for being one of the best performing states in Nigeria in the execution of AGILE projects. Out of 62 projects undertaken, 40 have been fully completed and they are of high quality while 22 are almost at completion stage.

They also commended our administration’s commitment towards reducing the number out-of-school children. With the State Government’s efforts, we have made progress in the enrollment and retention of children in school with over 300,000 children back in school since we assumed office.

I thanked the team for the visit. I also commended the AGILE Kaduna Team for their uncommon commitment. Our State is lucky to have the best AGILE Team in the country. We shall continue to support the team to advance the education of adolescent girls. Education is a leveler. It is the best tool for mental and economic empowerment.

Senator Uba Sani,
Governor, Kaduna State.
October 29th, 2024.
