The Governor of Kano State, Alhaji Abba Yusuf, has reaffirmed his administration’s commitment to delivering projects that will positively impact the lives of citizens across the state.
Governor Yusuf pledged on Friday while receiving the 16th Emir of Kano, His Highness Muhammadu Sanusi II, who led a traditional Sallah homage to the Government House in Kano.
The governor congratulated Muslims on the successful and peaceful Eid al-Adha celebrations and assured residents that his administration would continue to pursue its “Kano First” agenda aimed at building a modern and prosperous state.
According to him, ongoing interventions in road construction, education, healthcare, agriculture, and youth empowerment would be expanded to cover more communities across Kano State.

“We remain committed to policies and programmes that will directly improve the lives of our people. Our administration will continue to pursue the Kano First agenda relentlessly for the development of a modern Kano,” Governor Yusuf stated.
He also called on the traditional institution to continue supporting the government in promoting peace, unity, and development in the state.
Speaking during the visit, Emir Muhammadu Sanusi II commended the governor for the achievements recorded over the last two years, particularly in agriculture, infrastructure, healthcare, and other critical sectors.
The Emir, however, urged Governor Yusuf to remain firm against individuals or groups attempting to destabilise the state or undermine constituted authority.
“If anybody dares your government, show them the power of authority. We cannot continue to tolerate people who want to create chaos and undermine the government,” Emir Sanusi said.
He stated that Islamic teachings support responsible leadership and the protection of public peace and order.
“The Qur’an teaches that leaders should stand for their people, and you have demonstrated commitment to the people of Kano.
It also says those who attempt to undermine lawful authority should be decisively dealt with,” the Emir stated.
Sanusi further declared his full support for the administration, stressing that the success of the government remains a collective achievement for the people of Kano.
