Governor Dauda Lawal of Zamfara State has flagged off the construction of 3.5-kilometre Gusau township roads as part of his administration’s urban renewal project in the state.
It was gathered that phase one of the urban renewal projects commenced with four road construction projects covering 3.5 kilometres with junction improvements and drainages.
The project flag-off ceremony was held on Wednesday at Gidan Sambo, opposite the Central Police Station in Gusau, the state capital.
Governor Dauda Lawal explained that road construction is part of what he promised during the campaign: to build more roads as well as modernise and maintain existing ones.
“Urban renewal is one of my administration’s top priorities, aimed at addressing the lack of development in cities and towns since the creation of Zamfara State”. He said
“The first phase of the project involves reconstructing and improving 3.5 kilometres of township roads in Gusau, the State capital, as well as enhancing the drainage system.
“The construction will cover Bello Barau Roundabout, Old Market Road, Bello Barau Roundabout, Central Police Station Road, Bello Barau Roundabout, Government House Road, and Kwanar Yan Keke, Emir’s Palace, Tankin Ruwa Road.
“I believed that by making roads more accessible and reliable, it creates an environment that attracts investments, boosts tourism, and empowers local businesses”.
The Governor urged residents of Gusau town to be patient during the construction, adding that genuine progress sometimes comes with temporary inconveniences, but the results will far outweigh the difficulties.
