Sani said, “Our government is determined to facilitate commerce and opportunities through the provision of good road networks,” said.

“Igabi and Chikun LGAS have huge agricultural potentials, hence we are committed to giving our local farmers the necessary support required to boost their yields and market their produce.”

sani assured that the construction process would create job opportunities for both skilled and unskilled workers.
Moreover, he emphasized the positive impact on safety and reduced post-harvest losses for farmers in towns and communities along the route.

The Chairman of Chikun LGA, Mr Salasi Musa, said that the road projects would have a positive impact on the economy and lives of thousands of people in Sabon Tasha, Juji, and adjoining communities.
