This was made known on Tuesday by the Secretary to the Zamfara State Government, Malam Abubakar Mohammad Nakwada during a committee inspection of the project consisting of Block C of the Complex, expressing satisfaction with the quality of work done including the modern furniture and gadgets installed in the premises.

The renovation undertaken by Sources Plus Nigeria Limited is now 100% complete, with only furniture installation scheduled for completion within the coming weeks.

During the inspection, the SSG expressed confidence in the timeline, while urging the contractor to address some minor observations raised to ensure high-quality standards.

As contained in a statement by Comrade Suleman Ahmad Tudu, the senior special Assistant on Media, Office of the SSG, it was revealed that, the 30-year-old JB Yakubu Secretariat complex had languished without any major renovations, despite hosting many Ministries, Departments and Agencies until inception of the administration of Governor Dauda Lawal.
