30TH SEPTEMBER 2025.

In an era where digital innovation defines progress, Hon. Salihu Ayuba Musa, the Executive Chairman of Kanam Local Government Council, has taken a bold and visionary step that distinguishes him as a trailblazer not only in Plateau State but across Nigeria. As the first executive chairman in the state to take his local government into the global digital community, Hon. Salihu’s launch of the official Kanam Local Government Council website — www.kanamlocalgovernmentcouncil.com — marks a watershed moment in grassroots governance.

This groundbreaking website is more than a digital presence; it is a commercialized platform tailored to strategically position Kanam LGA within the global discourse on agriculture, local enterprise, and rural development. By offering detailed insights into the rich agricultural potential of Kanam, the website invites international investors, research institutions, NGOs, and development partners to engage directly with the local government area.

It also provides a transparent gateway for diaspora communities and global citizens to connect with local realities, fostering an inclusive environment for participation and collaboration.Under Hon. Salihu’s leadership, Kanam LGA is no longer confined to the peripheries of analog administration.

Instead, it stands proudly on the digital map — a symbol of innovation, modernization, and progress. His foresight in integrating e-governance with commercial opportunities has set a new standard for local administration in Plateau State.Hon. Salihu Ayuba Musa’s initiative is not just about technology; it is about opening up Kanam to the world, telling its story, and showcasing its resources, particularly in agriculture — a sector with untapped potential.

Through this pioneering effort, he has repositioned Kanam LGA as a digitally inclusive, economically viable, and globally engaged community, ready to partner for sustainable development.This bold initiative deserves commendation and emulation by other local government councils across the state and the country. Hon. Salihu Ayuba Musa has proven that local governance can be smart, efficient, and globally relevant.
