The Vice President, Kashim Shettima, on Friday commissioned the Tudun Biri Resettlement Scheme in Kaduna State, marking the fulfilment of a pledge by Bola Ahmed Tinubu to rebuild the community affected by a military drone mishap nearly two years ago.

The scheme, located in Tudun Biri community of Igabi Local Government Area, comprises 133 completed housing units, educational facilities and other modern infrastructure, delivered under the Resettlement Scheme for Persons Impacted by Conflict (RSPIC).

Vice President Shettima recalled that he visited the community in December 2023 following the incident and assured residents that President Tinubu had directed the immediate commencement of a resettlement programme.

In July 2024, he returned to perform the groundbreaking ceremony for the rebuilding effort.

Speaking at the commissioning in Kaduna State, the Vice President described the project as another promise fulfilled by the Tinubu administration, anchored on the belief that governance must serve the people, heal divisions and strengthen national stability.

According to a statement issued by Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Communications, Office of the Vice President, Stanley Nkwocha, Shettima said “today stands as a living demonstration of that principle.

“The commissioning of the Tudun Biri Resettlement Scheme is an assurance of our collective belief that fairness is the glue that holds a nation together, and that compassion is not a weakness of the state, but its moral strength,” he said.

According to him, justice in governance is reflected in deliberate actions to protect vulnerable citizens, heal broken communities and ensure that no Nigerian is rendered invisible by misfortune.

He stressed that the project underscores the Federal Government’s resolve to respond decisively to humanitarian crises and internal displacement.

“The Tudun Biri Resettlement Scheme is a vehicle for hope for families whose lives were disrupted. It is a practical assurance that the Nigerian state does not abandon its citizens in times of adversity,” Shettima said, adding that it represents a shift towards solutions that restore stability, rebuild livelihoods and promote lasting peace.

The Vice President explained that the scheme was implemented under RSPIC, a Federal Government initiative designed to deliver durable recovery and resettlement interventions, noting that similar projects are ongoing in Kaduna, Kebbi, Sokoto, Zamfara, Niger, Katsina and Benue states.

He commended the Governor of Kaduna State, Uba Sani, for what he described as a constructive partnership and inclusive approach to governance, stressing that the success of such initiatives depends on collaboration among federal and state authorities, host communities and development partners.

Governor Sani, in his remarks, thanked President Tinubu for demonstrating compassion, leadership and decisive intervention, and praised Vice President Shettima for overseeing the restoration of Tudun Biri.

He said the project reflects a commitment to placing the dignity of citizens at the centre of governance.

The Director-General of the National Emergency Management Agency, Mrs Zubaida Umar, described the commissioning as a significant milestone in the Federal Government’s commitment to restoring dignity, stability and opportunity to communities affected by humanitarian crises.

She said the intervention aligns with the Renewed Hope Agenda, which prioritises people-centred recovery, national security and inclusive development.

Umar explained that while the original design provided for 143 housing units, 10 units were converted into a school facility to meet the educational needs of children in the settlement, resulting in 133 completed homes alongside education infrastructure.

Responding on behalf of beneficiaries, Mrs Aisha Haruna and Mr Solomon John expressed gratitude to President Tinubu and Vice President Shettima for their sustained efforts to bring relief and restoration to Tudun Biri and other communities affected by humanitarian crises across the country.

Another promise fulfilled by President Tinubu. You then wonder why Governors are gravitating towards him, they have never had it this good.
No President has shown this much commitment at the state level as President Tinubu.

I hope the sharing will be transparent. That's the major problem of Nigeria.

For example, there was a similar housing scheme in Osun state. Could you believe Redeemers University went and acquired up to 70% of the units.

Buildings that were funded by taxpayers money for the less privileged and some pulpitprenuers went to corner it.

I don't think any of these pulpitprenuers plan to make heaven.

Anyways, kudos to Asiwaju and Shettima. 4+4 in shaa Allah!
