I Am Leaving Kaduna State Better Than I Met It – El-Rufai

The immediate past Governor of Kaduna State, Nasir El-rufai on Monday, bid residents farewell as he relinquished power to his successor, Mallam Uba Sani.

In his farewell address, El-rufai said at every step of the way during his service, he had been able to count on the support and understanding of the people, both in good times and in challenging moments, saying the support buoyed him to serve the people to the best of his ability.

He said, “We have had to take difficult decisions and most of our people have often understood that those steps were taken to uphold the common good. We are immensely grateful to the residents of our state.

The former Governor said he was confident that he had made Kaduna State a better place than he met it.

“We have made Kaduna State proud as an investment destination, a place of innovation in governance reforms and a state of equal opportunity for all who call it home. Our Kaduna is a state where every resident is a citizen. ” He said

“We have expanded access to education and health care. We have reformed our public school system to deliver free education for every child until they complete senior secondary school. We have placed primary health care at the heart of our health care delivery strategy.” He further said

According to him, he has guaranteed every child in Kaduna State the chance to climb the ladder of social mobility that a decent education and access to affordable health care offer.
