Governor Uba Sani of Kaduna State on Tuesday said that he and other Northwest governors have met and resolved to depart from the previous idea of giving money to bandits.
Sani hailed his predecessor, Malam Nasir El-Rufai, for the successful implementation of the Kaduna Urban Renewal Project while assuring that his administration would build on that and extend the developmental projects to the rural areas which would help in curbing insecurity.
On the issue of the removal of subsidies, the governor also said he met with the organised labour unions in the state and they have resolved to work together to achieve the Kaduna State Project. “I had a meeting with the organised labour in Kaduna State and we came out with some resolutions. They assured me that even when the national body embarks on a strike they will not participate.
“And this is because I have been working with them closely in the last few years in Kaduna. They are also aware that I have been part of them because of my involvement in the fight for the rights of workers in the last 30 years. “For the first time they are working with someone who was involved in the fight for workers’ rights and they believe this is their government,” he added.All rights reserved.
