In a show of overwhelming support, constituents of Nasarawa Central have unanimously endorsed Hon. Dr. Hajarat Danyaro Ibrahim for a second term in the Nasarawa State House of Assembly, citing her exceptional performance over the last two years in office.
The endorsement came as Dr. Danyaro, the only female legislator in the Nasarawa State Assembly and Chairperson of the House Committee on Women Affairs, embarked on a constituency-wide tour across all seven electoral wards, Ara 1, Ara 2, Laminga, and others,where she unveiled her achievements, commissioned developmental projects, held town hall meetings, and distributed fertilizers to farmers.
Commissioning of Tafisu Water Project
One of the major highlights of the tour was the commissioning of the Tafisu Water Project, which spans four wards in Nasarawa Central.
The project was formally inaugurated by the Nasarawa State Accountant General, Rt. Hon. Dr. Musa Ahmed Mohammed, who commended Dr. Danyaro for exceeding expectations.

Danyaro has gone above and beyond by facilitating direct community projects, which have significantly impacted the lives of her constituents. He urged the community to continue supporting her to attract more dividends of democracy.
To power the water facilities, Hon. Danyaro donated a high-capacity 6,800-watt generator to Makama Unit in Ara 1, where a new borehole was also handed over to the community.
