"Again, when we came in in 2023, Mr. President, in Kaduna State alone, we had eight local governments that were prone to insecurity. More than 300 schools were closed because of insecurity, and more than 150 primary healthcare centers were closed. Today, I am happy to inform you that all those schools and primary healthcare centers have been reopened, Mr. President. Furthermore, Mr. President, I want to draw your attention to two major promises you made. You promised to reconstruct the Zaria–Suba–Pambegua road. Our Speaker, Tajudeen Abbas, had been clamoring for that road since 2011. Only this time around, Mr. President, have contractors been mobilized. As we speak, the Zaria–Suba–Birnin Gwari project is ongoing, and we thank you, Mr. President, for this very important intervention. Mr. President, on behalf of the people of Kaduna State, I also want to thank you for choosing Kaduna State to be the pilot state for the metropolitan red line project in Nigeria. As we speak, Mr. President, $865 million has been approved, and the contractor, Motta Engines, informed me last week that they have been mobilized with $300 million for the Kaduna Metropolitan Red Line, which is about a 50-kilometer corridor. We remain deeply grateful to you, Mr. President. Finally, Mr. President, I want to thank you for your intervention through NELFUND and TETFund, because the Northwest of Nigeria has benefited immensely. Today, Mr. President, the Northwest alone has benefited to the tune of 84 billion Naira from NELFUND, supporting about 414,000 students from the region. We want to thank you because most of the students who have received this intervention are children of the poor, the underprivileged, and the underserved. You have given them a future, you have given them life, and we believe education is the greatest leveler you can give to anyone. Thank you, Mr. President." - Governor @ubasanius #RenewedHopeInKaduna
