KADUNA IS NOT WAITING FOR THE FUTURE, WE ARE BUILDING IT- THE LIGHT RAIL PROJECT.
The Signature of Leadership That Delivers
While others debate, Uba Sani is building.
Kaduna is on track to become the first state in Northern Nigeria to deliver a Light Rail system, a bold, transformative project that speaks louder than politics.
On April 30, 2026, the Federal Executive Council approved the Kaduna Light Rail Project: a 50km metropolitan network worth about ₦1 trillion, connecting Rigachikun to Sabon Tasha and Millennium City to Rigasa.
This is not propaganda. This is progress.
Kaduna now stands shoulder to shoulder with Lagos as one of the only states in Nigeria investing in modern rail transport. That is not coincidence, it is leadership.
What does this mean for the people?
No more wasted hours in traffic
Workers, students, traders, your time matters. This rail will move you faster, cheaper, and more reliably.
Real jobs, not empty promises
Thousands of jobs, from construction sites to control rooms, creating opportunities for Kaduna’s youth and professionals.
Less traffic, safer roads
Fewer vehicles. Less chaos. More order. A city that works.
Economic explosion along the corridors
Every station becomes a marketplace of opportunity. Businesses will grow. Commerce will expand. Wealth will circulate.
Property and investment boom
Where the rail goes, development follows. Kaduna is opening new frontiers for investors and homeowners.
Cleaner, healthier environment
Less fuel. Less pollution. A smarter, greener Kaduna.
And this is just one piece.
With the ongoing Bus Rapid Transit (BRT), road expansions, and rural connectivity projects, Kaduna is building a complete, modern transport ecosystem, not for headlines, but for generations.
The difference is clear:
Some governed with noise.
This administration governs with results.
Kaduna people can see it. They can feel it. They benefit from it.
The choice ahead is simple, sustain the momentum or return to the past.
Stand with progress. Stand with continuity.
Kaduna is not slowing down. Kaduna is moving forward.
