Chairman of the Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA), Alhaji Yusuf Hamisu Mairago, has said no individual can stop Governor Uba Sani from fulfilling his mandate to the people of Kaduna State.
Speaking at an All Progressives Congress (APC) stakeholders’ meeting in Kaduna South, Mairago accused unnamed political figures of attempting to interfere with the governor’s work.
“Someone has completed his tenure, yet he still wants to interfere in another person’s time in office. Is there anyone who was ever assured to be the guardian angel of Kaduna?” Mairago asked.
The APC chieftain described the governor as a leader committed to the state’s 11 million residents, insisting that he is driven by service and accountability.
“Uba Sani is for the people. The only thing he thinks about is the oath he took as governor. One man cannot make him abandon the oath he took for 11 million people,” Mairago said.
He added that the governor works tirelessly, often sacrificing rest to meet the demands of leadership.
Mairago highlighted improvements in security and infrastructure, noting that roads in Birnin Gwari and Giwa—previously unsafe—have now been reopened.
“Security in Kaduna has improved. Is there anything more important than improved security?” he asked, adding that even Vice President Kashim Shettima has praised the governor’s achievements.
According to him, Kaduna’s performance has placed the state on the global stage.
“America is looking for him at the United Nations. The Commonwealth has removed us from red to amber. No other state in the Northwest is on that map because of Uba Sani’s performance in two years.”
Mairago urged residents to take pride in their progress instead of doubting it.
“Let us in Kaduna stop worrying and stop being ashamed because we have something to be proud of. Governor Uba Sani is our pride,” he said.
He further pointed to constituency projects completed under the current administration, insisting that the governor’s focus remains on delivering results that past governments failed to provide.
