Bashir Ahmad has sparked a significant debate on social media with his recent opinion on the Kano State Government’s financial priorities.
In a post on his X account, Ahmad criticized the government’s plan to use public funds for demolishing and reconstructing the Nasarawa Emir’s Palace.
He argued that this project is not essential and urged that the funds be redirected towards tackling the state of emergency in education.
“In my humble opinion, the Kano State Government should refrain from using public funds to demolish and reconstruct the Nasarawa Emir’s Palace,” Ahmad stated.
“This is not a priority for the state at the moment.
Instead, the funds would have a greater impact if directed towards addressing the recently declared state of emergency in education within the State.”
Ahmad’s call for action highlights a critical issue, emphasizing the need to prioritize educational reforms over heritage projects.
His stance has resonated with many, drawing widespread support and prompting a broader discussion on the state’s spending priorities.
