In a groundbreaking move that underscores the growing influence of digital platforms in governance, Abubakar Garba (Dan Malam Garba), a close associate of Governor Uba Sani, has made history by rewarding social media influencers in Kaduna with a stunning array of prizes.
At the second DMG Awards for Uba Sani Media Influencers, which took place last night, the influencers were celebrated for their pivotal roles in promoting Governor Sani’s remarkable development initiatives.
The awards ceremony, the second of its kind since Uba Sani assumed office in May last year, saw a total of seven cars and ten brand-new motorcycles distributed to top social media personalities for their tireless efforts in amplifying the Governor’s message.
“These awards, a token of appreciation for their hard work in advancing the vision of all-around development in Kaduna, reflect a deeper recognition of the role that digital media plays in modern political discourse”, thw Governor’s ally added.
The DMG Awards were created to recognize the contribution of social media influencers who have not only supported the Governor’s policies but also worked tirelessly to bring attention to key infrastructural, economic, and social advancements in the state.
Abubakar Garba, who spearheaded the awards initiative, emphasized that these influencers’ efforts were integral in bridging the gap between the government’s initiatives and the public, especially in a time when the digital space is an essential tool for engagement.
“This is just the beginning,” Garba remarked during the ceremony. “Governor Uba Sani’s administration recognizes the power of social media to drive positive change, and these awards are a token of my appreciation to the hard work and dedication of those who continue to advocate for the growth of our beloved Kaduna State.”
The event, which held at Murtala Square, was marked by jubilation, as the recipients expressed their gratitude for the recognition, with many pledging to continue supporting the Governor’s transformative agenda.
As social media continues to shape public opinion and influence political narratives, the DMG Awards stand as a unique symbol of the relationship between digital influencers and the modern governance of Kaduna State.
