The Arewa Youth Consultative Forum has commended Kaduna State Governor, Uba Sani, for his strategic partnership with the World Bank to drive development and progress in the state.
The partnership encompasses eight major projects worth $885 million, aimed at addressing critical developmental challenges in education, healthcare, infrastructure, agriculture, and social welfare.
AYCF President General, Yerima Shettima, praised the governor’s visionary leadership and commitment to expanding World Bank support into new areas, including the Sustainable Power and Irrigation in Nigeria (SPIN) Project and the Resilient and Accessible Microfinance (RAM) Project.
“We applaud the governor’s recognition of the transformative role that the World Bank has played in our state,” Shettima said.
The AYCF noted that the projects have laid the groundwork for sustainable development and provided opportunities for youth empowerment and growth.
Shettima urged citizens to actively engage with and support the government’s efforts in implementing these projects, emphasizing the importance of public cooperation in ensuring their success.
“We recognize the importance of public cooperation in ensuring the success of these initiatives. We call upon all residents, community leaders, and stakeholders to join hands in fostering a spirit of cooperation and unity,” he said.
The AYCF commended Mr. Ousmane Diagana, the World Bank’s Regional Vice President for Western and Central Africa, for recognizing Governor Sani’s strong leadership and the effectiveness of Kaduna’s collaboration with the World Bank.
“Such acknowledgment is a reflection of the potential that exists within our state when we harness the right partnerships and leadership,” Shettima said.
The AYCF pledged its support for Governor Sani’s mission to elevate Kaduna State to new heights, urging citizens to work together to maximize the benefits of these projects and create a brighter future for all.
“We stand firmly behind Governor Uba Sani in his mission to elevate Kaduna State to new heights,” Shettima stressed.
