YOUR MANDATES ALIGN WITH MY ADMINISTRATION’S RESCUE AGENDA, ZAMFARA GOV. TELLS NORTHWEST DEV. COMMISSION

Zamfara Governor Dauda Lawal has expressed that the Northwest Development Commission’s mandates align with his administration’s six-point rescue agenda.

The governor hosted the management of the Northwest Development Commission for a courtesy visit at the council chamber in the government house, Gusau.

Last year, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu scrapped the Niger Delta Development Ministry and the Ministry of Sports Development with the creation of the Ministry of Regional Development.

The newly created ministry is mandated to oversee all the regional development commissions, such as Niger Delta Development Commission, Northwest Development Commission, Southwest Development Commission, and Northeast Development Commission.

In his remark, Governor Dauda Lawal commended President Tinubu for establishing the Northwest Development Commission.

“When His Excellency, President Bola Ahmad Tinubu, GCFR, assented to the bill establishing the Northwest Development Commission last year, I believe I was the happiest person in the country.

“Zamfara has been at the bottom of almost all developmental indices in the country and faces multi-faceted threats and challenges. With that in mind, I thank Mr. President again for this laudable initiative to revive the northwest region.”

Governor Lawal said that the visit by members of the commission presents an invaluable opportunity for collaboration in a shared vision to fast-track development in Zamfara state, one of the critical yet disadvantaged states in the northwest region.

“Your mandates align with my administration’s six-point rescue agenda: security, agriculture, education, healthcare, infrastructure, and economic empowerment.

“I would like to assure you that we remain committed to working with your commission to ensure that you deliver on your mandate for the overall development of the Zamfara state and northwest, which forms the most prominent political block in the country. My administration will provide you with all the necessary support you may require to facilitate your activities in the state.

“On a final note, I welcome you to Zamfara State as I look forward to witnessing the immediate takeoff of your responsibilities in the state as outlined in your agenda, which include addressing insecurity and ecological issues, among others. I believe that addressing some of Zamfara’s challenges, especially insecurity – rooted in poverty, unemployment, and illiteracy, among others – will translate into peace, stability, and general development of the region and the country at large.”

Earlier, the Chairman of the Northwest Development Commission, Alhaji Lawan Isma’ila Abdullahi Yakawada, stated that Zamfara State feels like home to him due to his strong relationship with the governor and the people of the state.

“We are here for a courtesy visit to get acquainted. I told my colleagues that if it’s Zamfara, it’s easier for us than even Kaduna because I feel at home here.

“Your Excellency, this commission is your baby; fortunately, the Northwest is the biggest zone in the country. The challenges we face are vast. We have a 10-year development plan of what the zone intends to achieve.”

Governor Dauda Lawal has restated his administration’s commitment to creating job opportunities for people whose livelihoods are closely tied to motor park activities.

On Monday, the governor flagged off the construction of Central Ultra-Modern Motor Park on Sokoto-Zaria Road in Gusau, the state capital.

A statement by the governor’s spokesperson, Sulaiman Bala Idris, revealed that the project awarded to Fieldmark Construction LTD will include ample parking spaces, rest areas for drivers, enhanced security installations, and a well-organized ticketing system to streamline operations.

During his remarks at the commissioning, Governor Dauda Lawal emphasized that the project is a vital part of his administration’s commitment to improving urban infrastructure in Gusau.

He said: “This initiative will enhance security, boost revenue generation, and enable our city to compete favourably with others across the country.

“This state-of-the-art motor park will feature modern facilities designed to accommodate commuters, passengers, and commercial motorists in a safe, efficient, and organized manner.

“Other essential components of this project include designated departure lines, a police outpost, a clinic, a fire brigade station, a mosque, an administrative block, a union office, public conveniences, a park hotel, a loading bay, a shopping mall, a travellers’ terminal, a waste disposal unit, a warehouse, a workshop, and a car wash area.

“Beyond its economic impact, this initiative also beautifies our state capital by our broader vision of creating a modern, vibrant, and liveable environment for our people.

“With these remarks, I am pleased to officially flag off the construction of the new Gusau Central Motor Park. May Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala bless this endeavour and make it a source of immense prosperity and development for the people of Zamfara State.”

The work will also consist of acquiring medical equipment for the hospital. This project is a follow-up to our declaration of a state of emergency on the State’s health sector after that of education.

“This was necessitated by the enormous challenges we inherited in the sector when we took over the governance of the state. The hospital is in a dire state despite its vital role in providing quality healthcare services to residents and visitors alike. Many of its structures are in disrepair, indicating an urgent need for attention. Additionally, the hospital lacks adequate laboratory facilities, hindering the staff’s ability to carry out essential diagnostic procedures effectively.

“As Yariman Bakura Specialist Hospital is the only State-owned tertiary healthcare facility meant to offer specialized medical care involving complex procedures and treatments, alongside providing specialized residency training for healthcare professionals conducting research in various medical fields, it is imperative that we ensure the remodeling and upgrading of the Hospital to enhance the referral system for specialist care, increase human resource for health and boost service quality utilization, leading to improved health outcomes. We intend to make Yariman Bakura the Zamfara State University teaching hospital as soon as the College of Medical Sciences commences.

“The components of the remodelling project will include new construction, expansion and upgrading of existing structures, renovation and facelift of existing structures, completion of Doctor’s Quarters, and the development of Laboratory Imaging.
