Speaking on behalf of Governor Sani at the event, the Director-General of the Kaduna Geographic Information Service (KADGIS), Dr. Bashir Garba Ibrahim, said the land allocation was part of the governor’s continuing commitment to empowering key stakeholders at the grassroots.


According to him, the initiative demonstrates the administration’s recognition of the contributions of ward-level leaders to community mobilisation and political engagement.


The workshop attracted several prominent APC members and dignitaries, including the Kaduna APC Chairman, Hon. Atiku Isaac Sankey; former Governor and Zone One Senatorial Candidate, Mukhtar Ramalan Yero; Executive Director of the Nigeria Integrated Water Resources Management Commission, Rt. Hon. Muhammad Abubakar Mamadi; Senator Shehu Sani; and the Special Adviser on Political Matters, Alhaji Aminu Zaria.


Other party officials and stakeholders also attended the training, which focused on strengthening the capacity of grassroots leaders to effectively deploy digital platforms in modern political campaigns.
