Governor Uba Sani of Kaduna State has approved the allocation of a large expanse of land for the building of a Spare Parts Market in Kaduna State.
The governor, who announced the donation at the 2024 Igbo Cultural Day Celebration, on Saturday, said the papers were being perfected by the Kaduna Geographic Information Service(KADGIS).
Sani promised to “personally perform the groundbreaking for the construction of the Spare Parts Market.”
According to him, Kaduna government is willing and ready to partner with Igbo industrialists and entrepreneurs as his administration offers very attractive incentives.
The Governor who was conferred with the traditional title of Ezienyi Ndigbo(friend of the Igbo people), said “Kaduna State is home to Igbos.”
He described the Igbos as a unique people who are “industrious, hardworking, resilient, resourceful and accommodating,” adding that they have contributed to the growth and development of Kaduna.
“Despite challenges, your faith in the huge potentials and possibilities of Kaduna State remain unshaken,” the Governor pointed out, urging Igbos to continue investing in critical sectors of the state.
“We aim to attract investments across diverse sectors, create jobs and facilitate technology and skills transfer, making our labour force skilled and employable.”
In his remarks, President General of Igbo Community Welfare Association, Chief Francis Uchenna Ani, explained the governor was given the title.
“We painstakingly looked at what your administration has done in the last 18 months since you assumed office as the Executive Governor of Kaduna State.”
“Your inclusive and open governance approach, the near total peace and harmonious coexistence amongst various tribes and ethnic groups in Kaduna State are some of the indices we considered.
“The communities in Kaduna State are highly impressed with the giant strides your administration has recorded within a short period in office.”
