Some indigenes and residents of Kano State have condemned the demolition of the historic Kano Government House Roundabout by Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf.
“The argument that the Kano Monument causes traffic is so baseball. There is huge traffic everyday around 5pm in different parts of Kano. Instead of solving the traffic situation in Kano, you can’t go about destroying a monument. While you’re at it, please look at the Kofar Kabuga underpass constructed by Kwankwaso. It also causes traffic. Since we are all being mad.
Jafar said the monument was designed by a young female architect to commemorate Kano’s Golden Jubilee. Another commentator, Abdullahi Mohammed said the historic roundabout “was the brainchild of the sub-committee on monument, headed by a renowned Kano-born architect and endorsed and approved by the main committee of 51 prominent Kanawas, chaired by the late Prof. Umar and co-chaired by then deputy governor of Kano State, Prof. Hafiz Abubakar.
Geidam wrote on his Facebook page: “One of the most beautiful edifices and landmarks I adore in Kano and Nigeria in general. Sadly, it is now no more.” “This is because it is done with used foam work and sandy materials instead of normal cement concrete.
