Kaduna State Governor-elect, Senator Uba Sani, has urged Nigerian political leaders to prioritise the security and welfare of citizens by putting in place policies that would uplift their standard of living.
The Governor-elect, who stated this in a goodwill message to mark Eid-el-Fitr in Kaduna yesterday, also sued for unity and peaceful co-existence of citizens of the state regardless of religious and ethnic affinities.
Uba Sani, who is the incumbent senator representing Kaduna Central at the Upper Chambers, while praying for Gods guidance in the governance of the State, noted that democracy could only be sustained by prioritizing the security and welfare of the common man.
Against this background, the Governor-elect said, ahead of the May 29 inauguration, we are assembling a formidable team of technocrats and politicians that will hit the ground running.
According to him, If we fail to rise up to our responsibilities, democracy will cease to make meaning to our people. It is by making our people happy and secure that we can sustain and deepen this democracy.
We are keen to build on the good foundation laid by my leader and mentor, Governor Nasir Ahmad El-Rufai. We shall further raise the bar of governance and make Kaduna State the model of development and peaceful coexistence in Nigeria, he emphasised.
