An atmosphere of jubilation filled Kanam LGA as Hon. Ephraim Usman, Commissioner for Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs, reaffirmed his commitment to service by commissioning two classroom blocks in Bakin Kasuwa, Gwamlar Ward, and Gar Bagyar Ward. This follows his personal initiative exactly one year ago when he built and commissioned two classroom blocks in Ga’ar Shye and Ga’ar Nangai to improve education in the LGA. Additionally, on behalf of his wife, Mrs. Grace Usman, he distributed 1,200 wrappers to women across the LGA.
At the same event, he presented 60 motorcycles, procured by LGA Chairman Hon. Ayuba Salihu Musa, to beneficiaries.
Addressing attendees across three locations, Usman emphasized that under Governor Caleb Mutfwang’s The Time is Now initiative, unfulfilled promises and exaggerated achievements in Kanam must end. He cautioned against politicians who stage symbolic events for publicity without genuine empowerment.
“Our PDP-led empowerment programs are real, not just talk. Beneficiaries will receive their items right here, and in a few days, we shall commence the distribution of 10 trucks of fertilizer to ease farming costs. The Governor’s developmental projects are there for all to see, and he has assured us that more are coming,” he declared.
Hon. Ayuba expressed gratitude for the people’s support, assuring them of further initiatives beyond transportation aid, including fertilizer distribution and additional developmental strides to be unveiled soon.
Executive PA to the Governor, Mr. Moses Nwan, commended the synergy between the two leaders, urging them to sustain their efforts. He encouraged the people to collaborate with the government in driving development and to remain optimistic about the progress ahead.
The event featured goodwill messages from visibly elated traditional rulers, LGA party officials, and community leaders, reinforcing support for the ongoing transformation in Kanam LGA.
