The ongoing reconstruction of the 122-kilometre Mando-Kaduna-Birnin Gwari Road will unlock the enormous agricultural and commercial potential of Birnin Gwari Local Government Area of Kaduna State, the council chairman, Dr Salisu Isah, has said.
Isah said the N177bn project would reconnect communities, facilitate the movement of agricultural produce, attract investment and create employment opportunities for thousands of residents who had endured years of poor connectivity and insecurity.
The chairman stated this in a statement issued and made available to Arewa PUNCH after President Bola Tinubu officially flagged off the reconstruction of the strategic highway.
He described the project as more than a road construction initiative, saying it represented an economic intervention capable of transforming the fortunes of Birnin Gwari and surrounding communities.
Isah noted, “This road is more than a physical infrastructure project. It is an investment in human development, national unity and economic prosperity.
