The Qatari Embassy and the Qatari-owned Sanabil project have been commended for their outstanding dedication toward creating a significant economic city and extensive housing estate with 500,000 units in the state by Governor Uba Sani of Kaduna State.
The effort aims to improve the vulnerable and underserved people of the state.
“The Economic City will establish world-class infrastructure, positioning Kaduna as a benchmark for contemporary affordable living,” Governor Sani said at the Millennium City groundbreaking event. It will provide a safe environment and a favorable setting for successful business operations.
In a statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Mohammed Shehu Lawal, Governor Sani said that the city would facilitate global trade and simultaneously serve as a nurturing platform for local entrepreneurs and traders.
He further said, “Within this dynamic economic city, provisions will be made for the less privileged, encompassing residences for the disadvantaged, clinics, shops, poultry farms, and farmlands catering to both rainy season and irrigation agriculture.”
Governor Sani emphasised that the housing project held profound significance, contributing substantially to the provision of shelter for the poor, underserved and vulnerable communities of Kaduna State.
In his remarks, Qatari Ambassador to Nigeria, Dr Ali Bin Ghanem Al-Hajri, commended the governor for his support and cooperation towards the success of the project.
