Two business men in Kaduna State — Kashim Bukar and Adamu Atta — have agreed to fence 100 public schools in Kaduna State.
This was revealed by Kaduna State Governor Uba Sani on Thursday when he hosted the All Progressives Congress (APC) stakeholders from the 23 LGAs of the state who paid him a homage for the Eid-el-Fitr at the Government House in Kaduna.
He said there are over 1,500 schools across the state that need to be fenced in line with the Safe School Initiative policy.
However, he said Mr Bukar, the owner of Barbados and Mr Atta, the proprietor of Fifth Chucker, have agreed to intervene by fencing 100 of the schools.
Governor Sani said, “For this reason, I approached some well-meaning citizens of the state, particularly in the private sector and as we speak, two of our prominent citizens here in Kaduna, that is Kashim Bukar, the owner of Barbados, as well as Adamu Atta, the owner of Fifth Chucker, have decided to fence 100 schools. We thank them for their effort and support.”
