NIGERIA AT 66: THE NATION WE OWE OUR CHILDREN - UBA SANI

As we commemorate our great nation’s 66th Independence Anniversary, I join all Nigerians, particularly my dearly beloved people of Kaduna State, in gratitude to Almighty God for the gift of nationhood and the grace that has sustained our journey. This anniversary invites us to honour our founding fathers, whose courage transformed the yearning for freedom into the sovereign nation we proudly call our own. Their enduring legacy entrusts every generation with the responsibility to make independence meaningful in the lives of our people.

Nigeria stands as the world’s most populous black nation, a source of African pride and a beacon of possibility. Our cultural richness, human ingenuity and extraordinary resilience have sustained our promise through difficult seasons. Under the Renewed Hope Agenda of His Excellency, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, our shared responsibility is to translate that promise into prosperity that reaches every household and opportunities that expand every child’s horizons. I am proud of Mr. President’s courageous leadership and steadfast commitment to this national endeavour.

Peace and stability are indispensable to the fulfilment of our aspirations. A farmer must be able to cultivate his land, a trader open her shop and a child attend school without fear. My administration in Kaduna State, working closely with the Federal Government under President Tinubu’s leadership, remains committed to strengthening security, improving public safety and creating an environment in which our people can live, work and pursue their legitimate aspirations with confidence.

To the people of Kaduna State, I reaffirm an abiding conviction: our diversity is our strength, and our shared humanity must guide our relationships. The dignity we seek for ourselves must extend to our neighbours. Let us reject prejudices that weaken our bonds and resist attempts to turn our differences into instruments of division. Through mutual respect, peaceful coexistence and collective determination, we will build a stronger Kaduna State and a more prosperous Nigeria.

The patriotism of our founding fathers calls us to sacrifice and accountability. Citizens must discharge their civic responsibilities, just as leaders must honour the trust placed in them. Sacrifice acquires moral force when leadership shares its demands and ensures that its rewards improve the lives of the people. Our love of country must find expression in the integrity of our conduct and the care we show one another.

This year, we celebrated 27 years of uninterrupted democratic rule. We thank Almighty God for this achievement while acknowledging our responsibility to deepen its substance. Democracy fulfils its purpose when citizens are heard, institutions inspire confidence and public service safeguards human dignity. Its enduring value must be evident in the security, opportunity and wellbeing it delivers.

To every public official, I offer this solemn reminder: we shall ultimately account for our stewardship before Almighty God. Let wisdom guide our decisions, integrity govern our conduct and compassion shape our priorities. The authority entrusted to us obliges us to serve faithfully, protect public resources and leave our communities better than we found them.

A new, albeit far better, Nigeria is achievable. Through our work in Kaduna State and the Renewed Hope Agenda nationally, we remain resolute in building a country worthy of our heroes’ sacrifices and our children’s trust. Let us pray for its peace, labour for its prosperity and strengthen the bonds that sustain our common destiny.

I wish the good people of Kaduna State and all Nigerians a happy 66th Independence Anniversary. May Almighty God protect our nation, bless our people and strengthen our resolve to build the Nigeria we owe our children.

KADUNA STATE TOPS THE 2026 TRANSPARENCY & INTEGRITY INDEX

The emergence of Kaduna State as the highest-ranked state in Nigeria in the 2026 Transparency and Integrity Index, with a score of 54.68%, is a significant recognition of the State’s growing commitment to transparency, accountability, fiscal responsibility and responsible governance.

This achievement represents three consecutive years of sustained progress and reflects the commitment of the administration of His Excellency, Senator Uba Sani CON, Executive Governor of Kaduna State, to a development agenda anchored on good governance, prudent management of public resources, institutional accountability, inclusive development and improved service delivery.

As an institution mandated to promote fiscal responsibility, transparency and accountability, the Kaduna State Fiscal Responsibility Commission (KADSFREC) remains committed to supporting the State Government’s reform agenda through strengthened fiscal discipline, responsible resource management, transparency in public finance and improved public financial management.

The assessment, covering key areas including fiscal transparency, open procurement, revenue generation and citizens’ engagement, underscores the importance of building public institutions that are open, accountable, transparent and responsive to the needs of citizens.

The recognition further demonstrates the value of sustained reforms aimed at ensuring that public resources are properly planned, allocated and utilised in line with approved budgets, government priorities and developmental objectives.

Under the leadership of His Excellency, Sen. Uba Sani CON, Kaduna State continues to pursue a development approach that connects fiscal responsibility with tangible outcomes for citizens. These include investments in infrastructure, human capital development, social protection, economic opportunities, public services and sustainable development.

KADSFREC continues to work collaboratively with the relevant Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs), must especially Ministry for Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs, Kaduna State Planning and Budget Commission,and all 23 Local Government Areas across the State to deepen fiscal responsibility and strengthen the culture of transparency, accountability and prudent utilisation of public resources.

While this recognition is encouraging, it also presents an opportunity to do more. The Commission remains committed to continuous improvement and to sustaining the momentum toward higher standards of fiscal governance, institutional transparency and accountability.

We therefore commend the leadership of His Excellency, Sen. Uba Sani CON, alongside the Commissioners, Heads of Agencies, Local Government leadership and the entire civil service for their collective contributions toward strengthening governance and public financial management in Kaduna State.

Kaduna’s ranking is not the destination; it is a call to sustain, deepen and continually improve the reforms that place transparency, accountability and fiscal responsibility at the heart of governance.
