Governor Uba Sani vows to prioritise workers’ welfare in Kaduna

As Nigerians celebrate International Workers’ Day, the Kaduna State Governor, Uba Sani, said his administration would continue prioritising workers’ welfare and appropriately equipping them with available resources.

Sani, in a statement on his verified Facebook page, noted that he was conscious of the fact that a committed and motivated workforce is critical to the achievement of the Rural Transformation Agenda.

According to him, human capital development and poverty reduction would continue to receive robust government attention through investment in education, health, agriculture, housing, micro, small and medium enterprises, as well as support for security agencies as they tackle terrorism, banditry, kidnapping, and other violent crimes.
