Adamawa State Governor, Rt. Hon. Ahmadu Umaru Fintiri, has assured the people of Shelleng Local Government Area that his administration will complete the Kiri-Shelleng road project and construct an ultra-modern market in the council headquarters to boost economic growth and development.

Governor Fintiri gave the assurance when he received prominent sons and daughters of the Shelleng Emirate, led by the Amna Shelleng, Dr. Abdullahi Isa Dasong II, who paid him a thank-you visit at the Government House in Yola.

The governor expressed delight over the visit and said his administration had recorded significant developmental strides across the state. He also stressed the importance of unity among the people of Adamawa State.

Fintiri said his administration had, over the past seven years, taken responsibility for the payment of WAEC and NECO examination fees for students across the state, alongside the provision of learning materials aimed at improving the education sector.

He further disclosed that the government would soon complete the asphalting of the Kiri-Shelleng road and construct a new ultra-modern market at the Shelleng Local Government headquarters to facilitate economic activities and promote development in the area.

Earlier, the leader of the delegation, Amna Shelleng, Dr. Abdullahi Isa Dasong II, said the visit was organised to appreciate Governor Fintiri for the numerous projects executed in Shelleng Local Government Area and other parts of Adamawa State.

Also speaking, the Chairman of Shelleng Local Government Council, Abubakar Isa Mai Jama’a, and the Commissioner for Mineral Resources, Haruna Ibrahim, said the administration’s philosophy of “no one is left behind and nothing is left untouched” had been visibly implemented across the state.

They commended the governor for approving the construction of community markets across Adamawa State and appealed for additional government interventions in Shelleng, particularly the construction of the Shelleng-Bodwai road.
