Applauding Rep. Abubakar Bichi’s Legislative Efforts

By Dominic Ejeh

The people of Bichi Federal Constituency in Kano State can look upon the accomplishments of their representative, Rt. Hon. Abubakar Kabir Abubakar Bichi, with immense pride. His contributions to their constituency, the state, and Nigeria at large have been both remarkable and impactful.

Nicknamed “Shine your Eyes,” the humble legislator was born on October 2, 1981, in Hagagawa village, Bichi town, the administrative seat of Bichi Local Government and the Bichi Emirate Council. His vision and commitment to democratic principles have set him apart as one of the leading figures of his generation. A champion of transparency and accountability, Rt. Hon. Bichi has earned a reputation as a transformative leader and a symbol of national unity.

While many legislators focus solely on their legislative duties—law-making, oversight, and appropriation—Rt. Hon. Bichi goes beyond these roles. Through his political acumen, he has broken barriers and extended his reach, bringing development not only to his constituency but also to other parts of the country. His dedication to using his personal resources and influence to uplift lives is a testament to his commitment to public service.

One of his most notable achievements is the asphalting of major roads in his constituency, which has greatly improved transportation and boosted the movement of goods, services, and agricultural produce. This infrastructural development underscores the effectiveness of a truly dedicated leader.

In education, Rt. Hon. Bichi has ensured that nearly all public schools in his constituency have well-equipped, conducive classrooms, fostering a better learning environment for students. He believes in empowering the youth while also taking care of the elderly, acknowledging that the future of every community depends on its young people, guided by the wisdom of its elders. His efforts include providing healthcare and resources for the elderly, further highlighting his inclusive leadership approach.

A forward-thinking leader, Rt. Hon. Bichi is not only focused on addressing current needs but also on leaving a lasting legacy. Among his various initiatives, his focus on agriculture has been transformative. By providing timely agricultural inputs, he has positioned his constituency as an agricultural hub, promoting food security and economic development.

Napoleon Bonaparte once said, “Ability is of little account without opportunity.” Rt. Hon. Bichi embodies this belief by empowering the youth through programs that advance skills, foster entrepreneurship, and create job opportunities. His initiatives have helped constituents build businesses and secure employment in government agencies. These efforts have opened avenues for personal and professional growth, making Bichi Federal Constituency a model of progress.

One of his hallmark programs is the annual scholarship scheme, which provides free education to tertiary students in his constituency. Over 10,000 beneficiaries have received this life-changing support, enhancing their intellectual capacities and opening doors to a brighter future.

Thanks to his pragmatic leadership, Bichi Federal Constituency has become a benchmark for others. His emphasis on human capital development, job creation, and wealth redistribution has improved social services and youth empowerment, setting a standard for national development.

In recognition of his achievements, Rt. Hon. Bichi has held key leadership roles, including Chairman of the House Committee on Works, Chairman of the House Committee on Appropriation, and Chairman of the House Committee on Federal Character. His extensive knowledge of Nigeria and his ability to foster unity have enabled him to oversee several federal road projects, including the Lagos-Badagry Expressway, Abuja-Kaduna-Zaria-Kano Road, Kano Light Rail project, and the Eko Bridge.

In the realm of law-making, Rt. Hon. Bichi has made significant contributions, including sponsoring the Bill for the Establishment of the University of Medicine and Health Sciences in Bichi, as well as the Office of the Surveyor General of the Federation (Establishment) Bill, 2021. He has been honored with numerous awards, including the 2024 Reps of the Year Award by the Democracy Heroes Award Africa, in recognition of his contributions to democratic values and community development.

A proud successor to a lineage of public servants, Rt. Hon. Bichi is the son of a former member of the Kano State House of Assembly and the Sarakuwa of Bichi. He received his early education at Hagagawa Primary School, Bichi, and went on to attend Government Junior Secondary School, Bichi, and Dawakin Tofa Science College, where he earned his Senior Secondary School Certificate. He later traveled abroad to further his education, earning a Bachelor of Science in Interdisciplinary Studies and a Master of Science in Energy Management from the New York Institute of Technology.

As we reflect on the achievements of this remarkable leader, we join the people of Bichi Federal Constituency in celebrating the life and legacy of Rt. Hon. Abubakar Kabir Abubakar Bichi on his birthday.
