In a bold move to enhance security across Katsina metropolis, the Katsina State Government, led by Governor Malam Dikko Radda, has begun installing solar-powered street lights along major roads. This eco-friendly initiative replaces the inefficient generator-powered lights, which required costly diesel maintenance.
The project, approved by the Katsina State Executive Council on May 23, 2024, spans 52 kilometers and covers key roads, including the routes from KTARDA headquarters to Shinkafi and Usman Nagogo Daura Road to Katsina Central Mosque.
With this upgrade, Katsina is stepping into a brighter, safer future.
