The Executive Chairman of Birnin Gwari Local Government Area of Kaduna State, Hon. Dr Salisu Isah, has described the reconstruction of the 122-kilometre Mando-Kaduna-Birnin Gwari Road as a historic intervention that would open a new chapter in the development of the area.
Isah commended President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Kaduna State Governor Uba Sani for their sustained commitment to improving security, infrastructure and socio-economic conditions in the local government.
The chairman, in a statement issued after the official flag-off of the ₦177 billion road reconstruction project, said the development was the realisation of a long-standing aspiration of the people of Birnin Gwari.
According to him, the strategic highway, which connects communities in Kaduna with other parts of Northern Nigeria, is critical to farmers, traders, students, civil servants, transporters and other residents whose livelihoods depend on the route.
