A frontline political support group, Uba Sani Back2Back, has commended Governor Uba Sani of Kaduna State for implementing what it described as “Nigeria’s most ambitious and people-centred economic empowerment blueprint.”
In a statement issued in Kaduna and signed by its Chairman, Comrade Mamman Nasir, the group said the Governor’s multiple empowerment initiatives — including the flagship “A Kori Talauci” (Eradicate Poverty) programme — have collectively transformed Kaduna into a national model for inclusive growth and social upliftment.
According to the statement, the A Kori Talauci policy is only one of several life-changing components of Governor Sani’s broader economic agenda, which also includes the ₦1 billion SMEDAN/Kaduna Matching Fund for MSMEs, a Women Economic Empowerment Fund, massive skills-acquisition and vocational-training programmes, and far-reaching financial-inclusion initiatives that aim to open three million new bank accounts for citizens.
“Governor Uba Sani has demonstrated uncommon courage in confronting poverty from all fronts,” the statement said. “His A Kori Talauci policy provides the framework, while the coordinated skills, enterprise, and financial-access programmes are the engines driving empowerment at the grassroots.”
The group also applauded the Governor’s decision to slash tuition fees by 30–50 percent in all state-owned tertiary institutions, calling it “a visionary human-capital policy that expands access to education and economic mobility.”
Comrade Nasir further highlighted the administration’s focus on agribusiness training, rural value-chain development, and the establishment of a State Skills Development Council to institutionalise and sustain empowerment programmes beyond political cycles.
“From empowering women traders to supporting small manufacturers, from training artisans to uplifting farmers, Governor Uba Sani has shown that governance can truly be a ladder out of poverty,” the statement read.
The Uba Sani Back2Back movement urged Kaduna residents to continue supporting the administration’s people-driven reforms, noting that Governor Sani’s economic blueprint “has restored dignity to work and given citizens a stake in the state’s prosperity.”
“Under this administration, empowerment is not an event — it’s a system. From A Kori Talauci to the SMEDAN fund, women’s initiatives and rural-skills programmes, Kaduna’s story is now one of hope, productivity, and pride. This is the Uba Sani difference,” the statement concluded.
