A Chieftain of All Progressives Congress(APC),Allaji Alhassan Yaryasa, has appealed to the Federal Government to intervene and reconstruct the collapsed Yaryasa Bridge in Tudun Wada Local Government Area(LGA) of Kano State.
According to him ,the call was necessary in view of the importance of the bridge which linked Kano State with Kaduna, Plateau, Benue, and the eastern part of the country.
He noted that most of the people in the area were farmers and could no longer transport their farm produce to various markets in the state due to the collapse of the bridge.
He added that the Yaryasa bridge links Kano State and other states, including Kaduna, Plateau, Benue, and the eastern part of the country.
He therefore said ” We appealing to the Federal Government to come to the aid of the communities living along the Kano- Tudunwada road because they have been cut off from the state capital and other states linking the state,” .
Yaryasa however disclosed that vehicles plying the road were being diverted to a designated alternative route to avoid risks to life and property.
