    Nasarawa: Gov Sule’s Aide Applauds Senator Gyang for Securing Akwanga-Jos Road Dualization project

    Published on

    The dualization of the Akwanga-Jos road has received widespread commendation from stakeholders in the North-Central region, following its recent approval by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu. The project influenced by Senator Istifanus D Gyang representing plateau North in the 9th Assembly is a long-awaited intervention, is expected to transform transportation, boost security, and enhance economic

    In a statement sent to journalists on Sunday, Dr. Kassim Muhammad Kassim, Special Adviser on Political Affairs to the Nasarawa State governor, Engr. Abdullahi Sule expressed heartfelt appreciation to Senator Gyang for his efforts and to the President for addressing the needs of the region.

    “This much-needed project, once carried out, will significantly enhance transportation and connectivity in the region,” Dr. Kassim stated. “It represents a critical step toward improving the safety, economy, and overall well-being of the affected communities.”

    Dr. Kassim also emphasized the broader impact of the dualization project on security. “The dualization of this road will contribute to alleviating insecurity from Akwanga to Sanga and Sanga to the surrounding forest areas. This is not just an infrastructural development; it is a lifeline for our people,” he noted.

    Residents and stakeholders have commended President Tinubu for his responsiveness to the cries of the people. “Mr. President has demonstrated true leadership by listening to the voices of the people and responding to their needs,” Dr. Kassim added.

    Stakeholders have called for the prompt implementation of the project to ensure its anticipated benefits are realized. “We eagerly look forward to the successful execution of this project and the positive impact it will bring to our region,” Dr. Kassim said.

    The Akwanga-Jos road has long been a vital artery for economic and social activities, linking Plateau State with neighboring Nasarawa and other states in the region. However, the road’s single-lane design and deteriorating condition have often posed challenges to commuters, exacerbating transportation difficulties and contributing to security concerns in the area.

    The dualization project is expected to bolster the regional economy by improving the movement of goods and people while also enhancing security by reducing the risk of criminal activities often associated with isolated or poorly maintained roads.
