The Governor of Zamfara state, Dr. Dauda Lawal, has commissioned 5 strategic projects in Tsafe Local Government, amidst the scourge of insecurity in the area, and pledged more visible, functional, and responsive development that meets the needs of the state’s people.
A statement by the governor’s spokesperson, Sulaiman Bala Idris, disclosed that the projects commissioned include a reconstructed modern motor park, a reconstructed market, a rehabilitated school, a renovated and equipped general hospital, and a renovated emir’s palace.
The statement added that the commissioning of the projects is key to community life, leadership, education, healthcare, commerce, and mobility, fostering pride and ownership among residents.
In his remarks, Governor Lawal noted that the five facilities are part of his administration’s efforts to strengthen public institutions, revive infrastructure, and make the Government’s impact felt.
He said, “The reconstructed Emir’s Palace in Tsafe symbolises continuity, authority, and cultural identity. Traditional institutions stay vital for grassroots governance as peace anchors, value custodians, and community partners.
“Reconstructing this palace shows respect for tradition and acknowledges traditional rulers’ vital role in maintaining harmony, resolving conflicts, and fostering unity. Our administration will keep working with traditional institutions as trusted allies to rebuild Zamfara State.
“Education and human capital development are vital to our aspirations. The College of Health Technology, Tsafe, trains health professionals who shape community care. Improving its environment and infrastructure invests in future health workers’ competence and confidence. Renovation bolsters our healthcare foundation and supports a skilled, service-oriented workforce.
