The Concern Nigerian Youths for Good Governance (CNYGG) has joined millions of Nigerians and patriotic stakeholders across the country in celebrating the exceptional legacy of Alhaji Abubakar Sadiq Yelwa, FCNA, FNIIS, the immediate past Managing Director/CEO of the Hydroelectric Power Producing Areas Development Commission (HYPPADEC).
In a press statement signed by Amb. Mahmud Abubakar, the National Coordinator of CNYGG, the group commended Alh. Yelwa’s visionary leadership, describing his tenure as a blueprint for impactful and accountable governance. Through bold reforms and people-centered strategies, he redefined the role of HYPPADEC and delivered real development to the hydroelectric power-producing communities.
