Potiskum LGA is fast emerging as one of Yobe State’s most active development hubs, following the deliberate and policy-driven leadership of Gov. Buni and Hon. Salisu Muktari, whose administration has prioritized people-centered governance and results-oriented service delivery.
Checks show that sustained engagement with federal ministries, departments, and agencies—alongside strong collaboration with the Yobe State Government—has unlocked a wave of impactful projects for Potiskum.
These interventions, cutting across road construction, bridge works, and access routes, are improving connectivity, stimulating commerce, and enhancing the overall quality of life in both urban and rural communities.
A major highlight of the Gov. Buni and Hon. Salisu Muktari's administration is its inclusive development policy; all ten wards of Potiskum LGA have recorded visible government projects supported by either the federal or state authorities. This even spread of development reflects a conscious policy choice to ensure fairness, equity, and balanced growth, regardless of location.
The local government’s development push aligns with the broader vision of Gov. Buni, whose administration continues to emphasize infrastructure renewal, improved healthcare delivery, and economic empowerment. In Potiskum, this alignment has accelerated implementation and strengthened grassroots impact.
Beyond physical infrastructure, the Buni-Muktari administration has also focused on policies that directly touch lives; enhanced access to healthcare, support for local productivity, and community-focused interventions are helping to strengthen livelihoods and deepen public trust in governance.
With visible results already on the ground and more projects underway, stakeholders describe Potiskum’s current trajectory as a product of focused leadership, clear policy direction, and relentless follow-up.
As development momentum builds, Potiskum LGA is increasingly seen as a model for effective local governance, where policy vision translates into tangible benefits for the people.
