Kaduna State Governor, Uba Sani, has reopened the Kidandan market in Giwa Local Government Area, years after it was abandoned due to persistent insecurity. The governor described the reopening as a significant step towards restoring peace and stability in the region.
Addressing the community at Kidandan village, Governor Sani emphasized the importance of peace for societal progress. “Peace is an invaluable asset; it is the foundation of progress and development. Conflict destroys, while peace builds. I am glad that after the milestone recorded with the reopening of the Birnin Gwari livestock market, Giwa has now followed suit. Indeed, peace is the only way forward,” he said.
The governor reaffirmed his administration’s commitment to upholding agreements brokered through the ‘Peace Dialogue Group,’ which has been working tirelessly to sustain the newfound understanding among stakeholders. He assured that those who have chosen to lay down arms would be protected and rehabilitated, in collaboration with security agencies aligned with the state government’s vision.
Governor Sani also highlighted the economic significance of reopening the Kidandan market, stating that it would revitalize the local economy and create numerous opportunities for the people of Giwa.
Urging the community to foster unity, he said, “We are one people. Though we may have our differences, there are peaceful ways to resolve conflicts. Let us collectively say no to violence and embrace harmony. Together, we can create a prosperous future for Giwa Local Government.”
This development follows the reopening of the Birnin Gwari livestock market on November 29, which had been closed for nearly a decade. Governor Sani described these milestones as indicators of progress in the state’s journey towards lasting peace and economic recovery.
