Gov Yusuf orders immediate resumption of Janguza-Kabo-Karaye road construction
Story from Shafaatu Dauda Kano
Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf of Kano State has directed the immediate resumption of construction on the long-abandoned Janguza-Kabo-Karaye road, marking a significant step towards addressing critical infrastructural challenges in the state.
The directive was announced in a statement issued by the governor’s Spokesperson, Sanusi Bature Dawakin Tofa, following a Sallah homage visit by the Emir of Karaye to Governor Yusuf on Thursday.
The Janguza-Kabo-Karaye road was originally initiated during the administration of former Governor Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso but was left incomplete and abandoned throughout the eight-year tenure of Abdullahi Umar Ganduje.
In a move to rectify this neglect, the Kano State Executive Council recently reviewed and re-awarded the contract, granting all necessary approvals for immediate work to resume.
This decision underscores the administration’s commitment to ensuring the completion of vital road networks that connect key economic and cultural hubs in the state.
