President Bola Ahmed Tinubu naturally respect, care and love Kano state and it’s people. This love for Kanawa fully manifested after he won and sworn in as President in 2023. Many people including politicians and experts in many fields were appointed into various offices. And stands with people of Kano during joy and sorrow.
In alliance with President Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda, Kano state in the beginning of this new year, 2026 enjoyed approval for three gigantic projects. These projects are:
Approval for N1.5 billion for the construction of a new earth Dam in Bela , Bichi Local Government Area of Kano state. The project will among others boost agricultural production, provide domestic water and create economic activities for the youth.
Approval for fresh N19 billion for the resumption of construction work on Kano – Gwarzo – Dayi dual carriage way which was abandoned by the past administration . The road is important as it links Kano state and neighbouring areas as it will enhance connectivity and boost economic activities.
