People of Zuru Emirate in Kebbi State have appealed to Governor, Nasir Idris of Kebbi state to seek another approval from President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for the reconstruction of the dilapidated Zuru-Wasagu-Bena road.

The appeal was made by an indigene of the Emirate and former Head of Service and currently the Special Adviser to State Governor on Civil Service Matter, Sufiyanu Garba Bena during an interview with journalists in Birnin Kebbi.

He said “Your Excellency, people in Zuru Emirate are happy for seeking approval from the President for the reconstruction of the deplorable Koko-Dabai-Mahuta federal road which the construction work currently has reached advanced stage. Equally Sir, we are soliciting for such opportunity from you to seek another approval from the President to reconstruct Zuru-Wasagu-Bena road which is also a federal road due to its bad shape.

“Our people are predominantly farmers and traders contributing enormous economic benefits to the nation, but the problem of the Zuru-Wasagu-Bena road has crippled business and personal interaction of the two local government areas of the Emirate,” Bena added.

The former HoS who is also the Director General, Argungu International Fishing Festival commended Governor Idris for visiting Zuru Emirate to sympathise with the victims of banditry attacks and the donation of N100 million to IDPs in addition to the approval of N10 million monthly subvention.

Bena, however, assured that the people of Zuru Emirate will come out enmass to vote President Tinubu and Governor Idris in the forthcoming general elections.
