Kaduna Will Repay Tinubu With 2027 Votes, Says Uba Sani

Kaduna State Governor, Senator Uba Sani, has said the people of the state will reciprocate President Bola Tinubu’s support and interventions with their votes in the 2027 general elections.

Sani made the declaration on Thursday while presiding over the graduation ceremony of 4,050 trainees of the Kaduna State Institute of Vocational Training and Skills Development.

The governor said Tinubu had demonstrated an unprecedented commitment to delivering development across the country, particularly through policies and interventions that have empowered states to pursue growth.

“No president in the history of this country has practically shown that he delivers like President Tinubu. Kaduna State will certainly repay President Tinubu during the 2027 general elections,” Sani said.

He added, “Under President Tinubu, states have been given wings to fly.”

The graduation ceremony was held at the Abdulkadir Balarabe Musa Campus of the institute in Rigachikun, Igabi Local Government Area.

The institute, established by the Kaduna State Government and commissioned by President Tinubu, has campuses in Rigachikun, Soba and Samaru Kataf.

The 4,050 graduates were trained in various vocational and technical skills, including aluminium fabrication, carpentry and joinery, catering and hospitality, computer hardware maintenance, electrical installation, fashion design, masonry, mechatronics, plumbing and pipe fitting, painting and decoration, refrigeration and air conditioning, solar installation, tiling and welding.

Among dignitaries at the event were Deputy Governor Dr Hadiza Sabuwa Balarabe; Speaker of the House of Representatives, Hon. Tajudeen Abbas; Minister of Education, Dr Maruf Olatunji Alausa; Minister of Industry, Trade and Investment, Dr Jumoke Oduwole; Executive Secretary of the National Board for Technical Education, Prof. Idris Muhammad Bugaje; and the Emir of Zazzau, Amb. Ahmed Nuhu Bamalli.

The governor said the skills development programme was part of efforts by his administration to equip young people with practical skills capable of creating employment opportunities, promoting entrepreneurship and reducing dependence on white-collar jobs.

He urged the graduates to put their newly acquired skills to productive use and contribute to the economic development of Kaduna State.
