Event Summary

The Human Rights Writers Association of Nigeria (HURIWA) commended Nigeria — Kaduna State Governor Uba Sani for his humane and rights-based approach to land acquisition under the Land Use Act. HURIWA praised the compensation paid to 122 households affected by the 15-kilometre Ring Road project in Millennium City, noting that over N3 billion has been paid for various infrastructure projects. Governor Sani declared that 'public interest can never become a justification for injustice' and slowed the project to allow transparent assessment. HURIWA urged other Nigerian governors to emulate this model.
