Tinubu and Development of Kano

Tinubu and Development of Kano . By Shehu Mustapha Chaji. Kano state as the centre of commerce and democracy in Northern Nigeria continues to enjoy special privileges from President Bola Ahmed Tinubu. Among the recent approvals given by Tinubu is N12 billion project to install 7 megawatts solar power to Malam Aminu Kano Teaching Hospital (AKTH) and will make the hospital independent of the national grid. There's also on going five - storey Accident and Emergency and Trauma Center unit being built by President Tinubu's administration. This year alone for the first time in AKTH there are on going projects worth over N26 billion to make the hospital among the best in west Africa. Other institutions in Kano to benefit from Tinubu's infrastructural development in Kano state recently are : a) Five to Six megawatts solar power for Bayero University Kano . b). Four megawatts solar power for Aliko Dangote University of Science and Technology, Wudil. c). Three megawatts solar power for Murtala Muhammad Hospital. d). Three mega watts solar power for Nasarawa Hospital. These solar power projects will help in reducing cost and save more by beneficiary institutions . As some from the opposition always try to make it look as if there's nothing good Kano is benefitting from Tinubu's administration, we'll list some new and on going projects under Tinubu administration.: 1). On going Kano Rail Project from Kano to Kaduna. 2). On going construction of thousands of affordable houses. 3). Upgrade of Malam Aminu Kano International Airport. 4). On going construction of Kano - Kaduna - Abuja Expressway. 5). On going construction of Kano Eastern Bypass. 6). On going construction of Kano to Katsina Expressway. 7). On going construction of Kano to Hadejia Road. 8). On going AKK Gas pipeline project. 9). Light Railway Kano City. 10). On going construction of Kano - Dutse - Maradi Railway. 11). Ecological protection funds to 16 Local Government Areas of Kano state. 12). Construction of irrigation canals from Tiga, Karaye and Kafin Chiri Dams to revive irrigation system in Kano south. 13). On going construction of Kano - Maiduguri Expressway. 14). On going construction of 38 kilometers Kano Northern Bypass. 15). Rehabilitation and expansion of Tiga Dam. 16). Upgrading of Federal Polytechnic Kabo to Federal University of Science and Technology. 17). Approval for establishment of Federal Polytechnic Rano. 18). Rehabilitation of 16 Dams in Kano state. 19).Building of International Conference Center in Yar Gaya And many more we didn't list due to lack of space. The people of Kano state are happy and appreciate President Tinubu's effort in bringing development to the state. Kano state for the first time since 1999 after return to democracy is enjoying massive dividends of democracy. President Bola Ahmed Tinubu should be calm as Kano will return his kind gesture with more than a million votes come 2027 election. Amb. Shehu Mustapha Chaji wrote from Kano.

Bichi HJRBDA and Tinubu's Renewed Hope Agenda on Food Security

Bichi, HJRBDA and Tinubu's Renewed Hope Agenda on Food Security. By Shehu Mustapha Chaji When Engr. Rabiu Suleiman Bichi officially assumed office about seven months ago as the Managing Director (MD) of Hadejia Jama'are River Basin Development Authority, Kano alongside Hon Musa Iliyasu Kwankwaso as Executive Director (ED) Finance, Alhaji Tijjani Isa as Executive Director (ED) Planning and Design, Engr. Baffa Datti Abdulkadir as Executive Director (ED) Engineering and Hajiya Zainab Gamawa as Executive Director (ED) Agricultural Services, they immediately swung into action to fulfill mandate of Hadejia Jama'are which among are development of surface and underground water resources in Kano Jigawa, and Bauchi States. Their first major achievement so far is their prompt actions to prevent flooding this year. There has been reoccurring flooding of Dams almost every year leading to loss of lives and destruction of crops / properties worth millions of naira. Rabiu Suleiman Bichi the dedicated , hardworking and workaholic MD of Hadejia Jama'are who recently Gov. Bala Muhammad of Bauchi State said " Rabiu was my colleague when I was minister of FCT and one of the best Directors in FCDA" will immediately respond to report about blockage along the Canals or River by Typha grass. He gives instant approval for repairs and personally visit sites to monitor how work is been done. All staff from whatever locations they are within the jurisdiction of HJRBDA have access to their MD and can call him to inform him daily progress throughout this rainy season. So far Alhamdulillah there's no report of any flooding in Kano, Jigawa and Bauchi States. Bichi a firm believer in President Bola Ahmed Tinubu's Renewed Hope Agenda on Food Security have been working round the clock to make it a reality. President Tinubu's gave approval for rehabilitation and expansion of sixteen Dams in Kano state including Tiga, Goje and Kafin Chiri Dams. This rehabilitation will boost irrigation that will directly benefit 30,000 farm families, increase of more than 50,000 acres of farmland, farmers can farm up to three farming cycles and will create more than 300,000 jobs. Bichi and his team are working tirelessly between Kano, Jigawa and Bauchi making sure there's increase water availability for irrigation to boost production etc. Their declaration of state of emergency on Typha grass helped in stoping flood and farmers getting enough water for their crops. Some key initiatives under Bichi's leadership include : 1) Agricultural Growth and Youth Empowerment which is been enjoyed by youths across Kano, Jigawa and Bauchi States aligning with Tinubu's Renewed Hope Agenda. 2) Training for Young Farmers. HJRBDA under leadership of Rabiu Suleiman Bichi plans to train at least 5,000 young people in modern agricultural practices like irrigation, beekeeping, horticulture and green house farming. Bichi's vision is to create 5,000 young new millionaires every year across Kano, Jigawa and Bauchi. 3). Irrigation Expansion: MD Rabiu Suleiman Bichi aims to increase irrigation coverage from 54,000 hectres to 240,000 hectares, targeting a boost in paddy rice production from 216,000 tonnes to one million tonnes. 4). Seek boost for water use efficiency of 20% through integrated Water Resource Management and optimized irrigation systems. 5). Support for "Every Home a Garden" initiative. HJRBDA under the leadership of Rabiu Suleiman Bichi has expressed full support for First Lady Senator Oluremi Tinubu's transformative "Every Home a Garden" movement focussing on food security and environmental sustainability. 6) All year round farming by farmers in Kano, Jigawa and Bauchi States. 7). All round year Typha grass cutting and seeking for ways to use it a energy in our homes. 8). Canal de-silting 9) flood and erosion control measures. The HJRBDA under the leadership of Rabiu Suleiman Bichi vow to repair all storage reservoirs , some that had even stopped functioning for more than a decade. Staff are now been motivated as they all want to give their own contributions for HJRBDA to be great again. We hope Engr. Rabiu Suleiman Bichi will meet with stakeholders from Kano state with the proposal for Greater Kano Water Supply and seek for President Tinubu's approval to end water scarcity within Kano metropolitan. Due to trust in leadership of Engr. Rabiu Suleiman Bichi of HJRBDA many are becoming farmers across the three states of Kano, Jigawa and Bauchi which will significantly increase rate of food production. President Tinubu's renewed hope agenda on food security is achievable in Kano, Jigawa and Bauchi States under the leadership of Rabiu Suleiman Bichi as MD of HJRBDA. Amb. Shehu Mustapha Chaji

Dandalin Siyasa : UPDATE

Its been long that the Management Committee of dandalinsiyasa@yahoogroups.com has its meeting due to political activities of 2011 elections in the country. All the same, on behalf of the Management I wish to congratulate our members that in one way or the other participated in the 2011 elections either as observers or in the wining or loosing side as they all contributed their quota to the growth of democratic governance in our country. I will also use this opportunity to welcome new members on board , and I believe many have enjoyed their stay which is manifested by rate of participation of members in discussions , and the zeal many have showed in advising ways to make dandalin siyasa more greater to make positive contributions to development of our country. Dandalin Siyasa forum is open to all Nigerians in respective of political , social, economic and religious affiliations of members, we are all partners in the business of strengthening our democratic norms and providing suggestions for our country’s development in all aspects. The forum started as initiative of a single individual which is the first of its kind in Northern part of Nigeria and has today been able to provide us with a platform of a unique innovation in discussion forums in Nigeria. We have been able to achieve a lot in the last three years of Dandalin Siyasa existence. The forum had it first year anniversary in Kano (2009), Second anniversary in Kaduna (2010) and hopefully its third year anniversary to hold in Sokoto later in the year. It has become a norm that during every anniversary event , some of our members are honoured with awards for their outstanding performance in the forum , so far six of our members received the awards in the past two years. We are also able to register an NGO (DANDALI FOUNDATION) with CAC to enable us perform our functions in the larger society according to the laws of the land. Plans are in top gear to launch DANDALI FOUNDATION as soon as possible. I will suggest to the house (forum) on the need for us to have an extra –ordinary meeting or get-together so that old and new members can come together face to face to strengthen friendship and exchange ideas as we do daily in the forum. Once again , we welcome all new members to our great forum and hope they will contribute positively in whatever way for the growth of dandalin-siyasa@yahoogroups.com and Dandali Foundation. Thank you all. Pharm Hashim Ubale Yusufu, Chairman, Management Committee,
