Emir Of Dutse Laments Frequent Accidents Along Kano-Maidugur

The Emir of Dutse in Jigawa State, Dr Nuhu Muhammadu has lamented the incessant road accidents claiming the lives of innocent people along Kano-Maiduguri Road.

The Emir raised the concern at the official commissioning and handover of the Kano – Maiduguri Road Section II (Shuwarin – Azare) held at Shuwarin town in Jigawa State.

The Emir said many people have lost their lives in several road accidents especially at two roundabouts at Kiyawa town in Jigawa State.

He called for urgent attention by the Federal Government to avert further calamities in the area.

“I am appealing to you to look at the two Kiyawa roundabout along Shuwarin to Azare road and see what you can do to reduce the hardship caused as a result of accidents,” he said.

Commissioning the project, President Muhammadu Buhari said the project covered about 263km of the Kano-Maiduguri Road section ll (Shiwarin-azare) from Dutse to Kwanar Hungama.

He said the road links Jigawa and Bauchi State and is a critical component of the National Road Network.

Represented by the Minister of Water Resources, Engineer Suleiman Adamu, the president urged road users to drive by the stipulated highway code.

Earlier, the Executive Governor of Jigawa State, Alhaji Mohammed Badaru Abubakar, MON, commended President Muhammadu Buhari for carrying out development projects in Jigawa State and Nigeria at large.
