Governor Nasir El-Rufai of Kaduna State has assured citizens of the state that he would not renege in fulfilling all his electioneering campaign promises aimed at bringing development and giving a new lease of life to all residents of the state.
He gave the assurance that his administration’s restoration agenda of making the state great again remained on course.
In a state-wide broadcast to mark his one year in office, Governor El-Rufai explained that his administration since it came to power, has embarked on massive construction of urban and rural roads, introduced free education and free feeding of 1.2 million primary school pupils.
He has also renovated classrooms and hospitals, created jobs for the unemployed youths and fished out ghost workers in the civil service.
He also explained that in spite of the lean resources the state has been getting, coupled with the heavy debt burden it inherited, his administration has recruited over 2,000 secondary school teachers, and retrained those in service to improve their skills.
He said that he has also accelerated the completion of the Zaria Water project as well as rehabilitated 12 other water works across the state to improve water supply.
Governor El-Rufai, while explaining how his government cut the cost of governance and stopped distributing state resources to a vocal minority, urged the citizens of Kaduna State to join hands with his administration to move the state forward.
