The Sokoto Youth Emancipation Front (SYEF), under the leadership of Hamisu Sani, has congratulated Governor Ahmed Aliyu on receiving the 2024 Urban and Housing-Friendly Governor of the Year Award.
This national recognition, presented at a grand ceremony in Abuja, celebrates the Governor’s contributions to urban planning, road infrastructure, and housing development in Sokoto State.
In a statement by leader of the group, Hamisu Sani, the SYEF commended Governor Aliyu’s dedication to transforming Sokoto’s urban and housing landscape, describing the award as a testament to his visionary leadership and commitment to sustainable development.
Governor Aliyu emerged victorious among three nominees for the prestigious award due to his remarkable strides in improving urban infrastructure and addressing housing challenges.
His administration has constructed and commissioned over 30 township roads, with an additional 40 road projects currently ongoing in metropolitan areas across the state.
“These roads have improved connectivity, boosted economic activities, and enhanced the overall quality of life for Sokoto residents.
“Governor Aliyu’s leadership reflects the values of progress and accountability that we, as a youth-driven organisation, deeply admire.
“The Governor’s efforts to address housing deficits have also been widely lauded. His administration is constructing 1,000 housing units in Gidan Salanke and Wajake, while also purchasing 137 federal government-built houses in Kwannawa to provide affordable housing for Sokoto residents.
“These housing projects are not just about buildings; they represent hope for families who have long struggled with accommodation challenges,” Sani said.
