All the way from the Federal Housing Area to the second gate(NNPC) filling station, you will see every sign post readin Gado Nasco road. We believe Byazhin and Arab road are almost as popular esepcially amongst the kubwa residents.
Who is this Gado Nasko or what was he?
Here are some fact about who the person was so that next time you hear the name, you can nod in affirmation that, "oh yeah, i know about that" just like the Olusegun Obasanjo roads, IBB ways, Abacha roads etc.
Most notable facts about him as as follows:
Gado Nasko is a retired Military Officer with full name - Lieutenant General Muhammad Gado Nasko.
He was a one time MINISTER OF THE FCT - FROM 1989 to 1993. He was succeeded by the popular Jeremiah Timbut Useni.
He hails from Nasko, Magama Local Government Area of Niger State.
He was also the minister of Trade, Agriculture and Water resources from 1985 -1989
He was the Governor of Sokoto State from 1978 - 1979
Next time you see that name in or around kubwa or anywhere, you know the gist.
