Kano govt makes U-turn, to reinstate design of demolished roundabout

Published by

Kano state government has made a U-turn over the recent demolition of the Jubilee roundabout in front government house, by making plans to reinstate the iconic design of the demolished roundabout near the government house to a more secure place at the Naibawa flyover in the outskirt of the city.

It will be recalled that after demolishing the historical jubilee designed by a female Kano young lady, many indigenes of the state have condemned the demolition of the roundabout

However, the state governor, Abba Kabir Yusuf, who met with the designer of the Golden Jubilee edifice, Kaltume Hana at the new site for the erection of the structure, expressed the government’s commitment to infrastructural development.

According to Yusuf, the newly proposed place is suitable for the work and will not pose any challenge after a carefully conducted survey and assured the citizens of better projects ahead.

The spokesperson to the governor, Comrade Hisham Habib, disclosed this in a statement made available on Monday to pressmen in Kano

The designer, Kaltume Gana thanked the governor for preserving her unique work which was adjudged as a masterpiece.

The structure which was designed like a traditional gate and a trumpet on top was pulled down after it was deemed not suitable for the place, and a better replacement will be put in place.

However, many critics of the state government, see the U-turn of Governor Yusuf to rebuild the demolished jubilee roundabout, as a tactical way and douse the bases rained against the state governor’s action.
