Delivering his speech at the commissioning, Governor Dauda Lawal said that for the first time in 28 years since Zamfara State was created, Gusau has now begun to look like a proper state capital

“I wish to start by welcoming our august visitor and special guest of honour to this occasion. This is no other person than His Excellency Ahmad Adamu Mu’azu, CON, the former Governor of Bauchi State and the former National Chairman of the Peoples’ Democratic Party (PDP). Your records as a trailblazer as Bauchi State Governor and (PDP) Chairman are still unbeaten and have remained a source of inspiration for upcoming leaders.

“Indeed, we cannot thank almighty Allah enough for the gift of life and for the opportunity to continue to unveil project after project, not only as a developmental pedestal of our State but as a mark of fulfillment of our promise to the people of Zamfara State during electioneering campaigns.  I want to reiterate my commitment to the service of my dear State at all times.

“To the glory of almighty Allah, therefore, we shall be commissioning the road from Freedom Square to Nasiha Chemist Junction, Freedom Square to Government House, all contracted to Ronches Nigeria Limited, and Government House to Lalan Gada-Biyu carried out by Triacta Nigeria Limited. These are some of the township roads constructed by my administration from when we took office.

“What we are about to commission today is the second in a series of many. By the time we finish our plans for the urban renewal program, all of us will be proud to call Gusau our state capital. Similarly, we will improve all infrastructure across the 14 local government areas of the state.

“With these few remarks, it is my honor and privilege to invite His Excellency, the former Governor of Bauchi State, Alhaji Ahmad Adamu Mu’azu, CON, to come forward and commission the Freedom Square to government house junction and Freedom Square to Nasiha junction road all constructed by this administration within one year of leadership of the State as part of our urban renewal program.”
