…Christian faithfuls laud inclusive governance
Christian faithfuls in Kaduna State have commended Gov. Uba Sani for restoring the state-sponsored Christian Pilgrimage Programme after an eleven-year suspension, describing the move as a strong statement of fairness, equity, and inclusive governance.
The commendation came during the 2025 orientation programme for 50 intending Christian pilgrims sponsored by the Kaduna State Government.
The event marked the first state-backed Christian pilgrimage in over a decade, following its discontinuation by previous administrations.
The participants expressed gratitude to the Governor for reviving the initiative, noting that the decision has rekindled hope within Christian communities and strengthened their sense of belonging in the state.
The Head of Service, Mrs. Jimami Bako, praised Governor Uba Sani for reintroducing the programme, emphasizing that the administration recognizes spiritual growth and moral values as important complements to physical infrastructure and economic development.
She described the revival as a reflection of leadership that values faith as a foundation for peace and social harmony.
The Commissioner for Information, Ahmed Maiyaki, stated that the initiative aligned with Sani’s administration’s commitment to justice, equity, and inclusiveness for all residents, regardless of religious affiliation.
The beneficiaries said the revival of the Christian Pilgrimage Programme underscores the government’s renewed commitment to religious harmony, balanced governance, and strengthened trust between citizens and the state.(NAN)
