<p>The House of Representatives candidate for Wudil/Garko Federal Constituency under the platform of people&#8217;s redemption party in Kano State, Rufai Dagumawa, has pledged to establish an Information and Communication Technology (ICT) hub in Garko to equip young people with digital and technical skills and connect them to the global economy.</p><div class="b4dPzld1" style="clear:both;float:left;width:100%;margin:0 0 20px 0;"><script async src="https://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script>

<p>Dagumawa made the pledge in an interview with Nigerian Tracker after a stakeholders’ meeting held in Kano, where he outlined his vision for addressing socioeconomic challenges in the constituency through technology-driven empowerment.</p>
<p>The candidate said he believed that sustainable development required a proper understanding of the underlying causes of socioeconomic problems rather than adopting temporary measures that failed to provide lasting solutions.</p>
<p>According to Dagumawa, many people discuss the challenges confronting their communities without fully understanding the issues or identifying practical ways to resolve them permanently.</p><div class="JqIhTXHI" style="clear:both;float:left;width:100%;margin:0 0 20px 0;"><script async src="https://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script>

<p>He said he had been considering different approaches to addressing the problems facing Wudil and Garko, adding that his proposed interventions would focus on practical solutions that could improve the lives of residents.</p>

<p>Dagumawa argued that Garko Local Government Area could address many of its development challenges through targeted interventions, noting that its circumstances differed from those of larger metropolitan local government areas.</p>
<p>He maintained that establishing an ICT hub would provide an opportunity to equip young people with marketable skills and create sustainable employment opportunities within the constituency.</p>
<p>“Information and Communication Technology is the key to success in today&#8217;s world,” Dagumawa said, explaining that technology had become an important tool for economic growth and development across different countries.</p>

<p>He cited countries such as Singapore, Malaysia and Argentina as examples of places where technology and sophisticated ICT infrastructure were being used to support development and improve access to technical services.</p>
<p>Dagumawa said his plan, if elected, would involve bringing experts to Garko to train young people in the production of mobile phone accessories, including screen protectors and phone chargers.</p>
<p>He explained that the proposed centre would also provide practical training in phone repairs, laptop and desktop computer repairs, as well as other ICT-related services that could enable participants to earn a living through technical expertise.</p>
<p>The candidate said the initiative would go beyond conventional empowerment programmes by equipping beneficiaries with skills they could use to establish businesses, provide services and compete in an increasingly technology-driven economy.</p>
<p>According to him, the availability of technical support services and ICT training facilities would create opportunities for young people to develop specialised competencies and respond to the growing demand for digital and electronic services.</p>
<p>Dagumawa added that the proposed hub would help bridge the gap between young people in Wudil/Garko and opportunities available in the wider economy by giving them access to skills that could be applied locally and internationally.</p>
<p>He described the initiative as a form of sustainable empowerment that could provide young people with long-term livelihood opportunities rather than temporary financial assistance.</p>
<p>The candidate said his ultimate objective was to create a system through which young people in the constituency could acquire practical knowledge, become economically productive and contribute to the development of their communities.</p>
<p>Dagumawa maintained that connecting Wudil/Garko to the global economy through technology would require deliberate investment in skills acquisition, technical training and access to modern ICT services.</p>
<p>Dagumawa also pledged to address drainage problems in Garko, saying his approach would focus on identifying the root causes of the challenges and implementing lasting solutions rather than temporary measures.</p>
<p>The House of Representatives candidate said many people discussed socioeconomic problems without adequately understanding their underlying causes, stressing that effective leadership required careful thinking and practical plans to resolve such challenges permanently.</p>
<p>According to Dagumawa, he had been considering different approaches to addressing the drainage challenges confronting the area, adding that he was committed to finding solutions that would improve the living conditions of residents.</p>
<p>He argued that addressing the drainage system in Garko was achievable with targeted interventions, noting that the local government did not face the same scale of challenges as some larger metropolitan areas.</p>
<p>Dagumawa said his proposed intervention would focus on resolving the drainage problems through practical measures designed to provide lasting relief to residents, although he did not provide specific details of the proposed projects.</p>
