“We will facilitate federal support for critical infrastructure, roads, housing (especially for vulnerable families), and rural development. We will also drive legislation that boosts agriculture, enhances food security, addresses issues of nutrition and strengthens the backbone of our local economy.
“We will strengthen legislative backing for improved security architecture, expand impactful initiatives like the Streets to Straight Project (End Daba), and aggressively tackle drug abuse, gangsterism, and street criminality, so that our communities can be safe and productive,” the aspirant said.
He also expressed his intention to reconnect Kano Central to the APC at both the state and national levels, “so that our people can fully benefit from government programs, strategic investments, and national opportunities.”
“I will be available in the red chamber to introduce important legislations and move substantive motions in line with our legislative agenda priorities, organize town hall meetings and constituency outreaches and be a strong voice of influence in the red chamber.
“With me as your Senator, the people of Kano Central will be rescued from the sidelines and mainstreamed in the heart of national governance and opportunities.Kano Central must be at the table where decisions are made.
“Come 2027, Kano Central will return to its days of glory and positive influence in National politics for the development of our people,” Zaura added.
