A Pan-Political Group, Public Enlightenment Movement (PEM), has reaffirmed President Bola Tinubu’s commitment to infrastructure development, housing delivery and improved mobility as foundations for economic growth and national integration.
The National Coordinator of PEM, Mr Nuhu Abdullahi, made this known during a combined Phase 5 and Phase 6 briefing of the project on Saturday in Kano.
He said the programme was designed to provide factual updates on selected development efforts being implemented in the North under President Tinubu’s leadership, in the interest of public awareness and transparency.
According to him, Phases 5 and 6 of the project highlight key road infrastructure projects being executed along the Babura corridor in Katsina State and the Dawanau axis in Kano State.
He said the projects were improving traffic flow, strengthening commercial activities and supporting agricultural distribution in major economic areas.
“Further interventions include road improvements around Funtua in Katsina State, enhancing access for farming communities.
“There is also noticeable progress along the Kano–Hadeja route, where improved road conditions are reducing travel time and enhancing commuter safety,” Abdullahi said.
He added that the phases also featured interventions in the health sector, particularly developments at the Federal Medical Centre, Misau, through the conversion of the General Hospital, Misau.
He said the development was strengthening access to quality healthcare services, improving medical capacity and expanding tertiary healthcare delivery for surrounding communities.
Abdullahi further listed strategic road projects such as the Ajaokuta–Okene and Akwanga corridors, noting that they continued to strengthen interstate connectivity and support economic and social activities across regions.
Abdullahi, however, explained that the projects highlighted in the phases represented only a few of many ongoing Federal Government interventions nationwide.
He said the programme focused on selected projects to enhance public enlightenment and promote transparency.
He reiterated that the phases underscored the administration’s commitment to infrastructure development, housing delivery and improved mobility as key drivers of economic growth and national integration.
