From Mohammed Abubakar, Dutse
Jigawa State is set to host President Bola Tinubu on a one-day visit on Tuesday, during which he will inaugurate projects of the Umar Namadi administration and attend the state edition of the presidential campaign rally.
After inspecting the rally ground at Dutse Township Stadium, Governor Namadi said Jigawa was ready, though work was still ongoing. He said officials from the President’s office had identified some areas for correction, which were being addressed.
The projects include the Renewed Hope Technical Services, the Bola Ahmed Tinubu Multipurpose Skill Acquisition Centre, 400 tractors with implements, 60 combine harvesters and the dual Garu road leading to the Emir of Dutse’s palace.
Namadi stated that security arrangements were perfect, following a meeting with security chiefs. He said Jigawa people, once told the President was coming, would turn out in large numbers to welcome him.
Meanwhile, the Jigawa APC chairman, Garba Ahmad Maikudi, rejected suggestions that the ruling party influenced last week’s court judgment that sacked the David Mark leadership of the ADC, saying the courts and parties are independent.
