This morning, Governor

on behalf of KDSG presents vehicles to the security agencies operating in Kaduna State. It’s about enhancing security agencies mobility in the State.
When we link criminality with religion and ethnicity, we drift further away from a solution. But when we face criminals as criminals, we are closer to the solution.Emotions, sentiment and prejudice help no one.
KADUNA UPDATE:
I am delighted to report today, that after nearly four weeks of observing a strict medical regime, I have now received the all-clear after two consecutive negative test results.

It’s a long story, for example, this is how we met LEA Primary School, Lokoja Road, Rigasa (Igabi LGA) with over 20,000 pupils in 2015. The other pictures represent the new outlook of the school. We are still on course.

If abuse and blackmail is lucrative business,your predecessors would have been billionaires and accomplished professionals.Abusing and blackmailing people that don’t know you exist will retrogress you, and make them more prosperous.
Point of caution:
Mind only your business.
When people don’t share the same pain, they can’t mourn together. We hate ourselves on frivolous religious, ethnic and political grounds and wants to share the same pain and joy.

at the flag-off of Operation Puff Adder II in Kaduna State. It’s part of complementing boots on the ground and expanding the ongoing operation. Grateful to CP Umar Muri and his team for the warm reception.
Why they are groaning?
They said he’s outgoing Governor and they shared appointments, but the electorates surprised them.
They said they are owners of Kaduna State but the electorates said NO, ‘you are middlemen whose business has come to an end.
Why would they not groan?
Today, while on the Kaduna-Abuja Road, Governor

KDSG imposes curfew in parts of Chikun and Kaduna South LGAs
The areas are Barnawa, Kakuri, and Television in Kaduna South Local Government Area and Maraban Rido, Sabon Tasha, Narayi and Ungwan Romi of Chikun Local Government Area.
Supt Usman Hamma,DPO Nariya Division,one of our finest officers who was wholly committed to the campaign against banditry in Kaduna, passed on 9/1/2022.If there was ever an officer who was dedicated,courageous,forthright and fearless,Hamma was one.He was truly a team player.
We will be in for the long haul waiting for someone to fail, for us to celebrate. As we wait for his or her failure, God will double their success while we experience the multi-dimensional retrogression and acute heartbreak.
On our way to the office from Jaji, we stopped over to thank some farmers near the Rigasa Train Station who supported clearing the general area of bushes that hitherto served as a haven for criminals.

The Kaduna Power Struggle...
Do not be deceived or lose your cool. Fight no one, insult no one but take time to reason and deeply interrogate all the variables. It is a struggle between old and new orders, but the new order is leading with a wide margin.
.... Forever grateful to the outgoing CDS, COAS and CAS. They were always helpful, and made our job easy. Again, I will be forever grateful; my best wishes, Sirs.
On the way to Kaduna, I stopped over at Doka Market in Kajuru LGA to see how it was faring. I shopped at the market and was happy.The market was shutdown in 2020,and later re-opened following the community based peace initiatives consummated by local Adara and Fulani communities.
