Ajaokuta Steel, neglected by a generation, is whirring back to life. Solid mineral tie-ups, infrastructure development, power generation, and deals amounting to billions of dollars. These were sweet pies that some commentators wanted to ignore as poison. Some had criticized two governors for accompanying the president. While all the critics saw was jamboree, what they accomplished was progress. They were smart, as smart as the smart cities they are working on.
Governor Uba is repositioning the state for better security, efficiency and investments
Without being immodest, one can state that Kaduna State Governor, Uba Sani, is driven by three identifiable things – vision, passion and action — to birth a new Kaduna State. A new state where the good people live in peace, in unity, in prosperity, and shared values for a better, more dignifying, and comfortable life. And this, he has done without airs since his assumption of office in sharp contrast to what previously obtained in the state.
Kaduna State governor, Uba Sani has announced that the Kaduna Smart City project is poised to attract $150 million in foreign investment and create 100,000 direct jobs.
