News Investigators/ Speaker of the House of Representatives, Tajudeen Abbas, has urged Kaduna citizens to re-elect President Bola Tinubu and all APC candidates to sustain ongoing reforms and development projects in the state.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that Abbas made the call on Sunday in continuation of his tour of his constituency to inaugurate projects.
Speaking during a groundbreaking ceremony for road construction and educational projects in Ikara Local Government Area, Abbas said the sacrifices associated with the Federal Government’s reforms were temporary.
He expressed optimism that Nigerians would soon begin to experience the benefits.
He urged Nigerians to give Tinubu a second term to complete the reforms, describing the President as a friend of Kaduna State.
The Speaker said Kaduna had benefited from four federal university projects within three years under Tinubu’s administration, after decades without an additional federal university.
He listed the upgrade of the Federal College of Education, Zaria, to a university, the establishment of the University of Applied Sciences in Kachia and the conversion of the Kaduna petroleum institute into a university.
Mr Abbas also said a bill he sponsored had secured presidential approval for the conversion of Kaduna Polytechnic into a Federal University of Technology.
He said the development, alongside other federal projects, justified the need for Kaduna residents to support Tinubu’s re-election bid.
Mr Abbas also urged residents to support Kaduna State Governor, Uba Sani’s re-election in 2027, citing ongoing road, water and health projects across the state.
He warned that a change of government could jeopardise the completion of ongoing projects, urging citizens to support continuity.
The Speaker commended Mr Uba Sani for his contributions to Kaduna State’s development and support for his emergence as Speaker of the House of Representatives.
He also solicited support for the APC candidates in Kaduna to appreciate the party’s support and contributions to developments in the state.
In his remarks, Mr Sani, represented by the Secretary to the State Government, Dr AbdulKadir Meyere, commended the Speaker for extending development projects to communities across the state.
Mr Sani also solicited support to all APC candidates in the state for continuity and sustain dividends of democracy.
