Dantiye highlighted various projects in infrastructure development, social amenities, and empowerment, with a significant focus on education and women empowerment.

The commissioner expressed gratitude to the people of Kano State for their support and understanding. He assured that the government remains committed to the welfare of the people, prompt payment of pensioners’ gratuity, and continuation of ongoing projects, including the construction of flyovers and interlocks to decongest road traffic.
