The political horizon in Nigeria’s Adamawa state is set to change dramatically in 2027 when the young and handsome dynamism of Abdulrahman Bashir Haske emerges as the next State Governor. Haske whose maternal grand father was a leading light in the old politics of the state and his father a successful business mogul is the main talking point as the 2027 political calculations of Adamawa State gather momentum.

Young and formidable, the cool and calculated Abdul would probably become the first America University of Yola educated graduate of the institution becomes the governor of Adamawa state.

Born 36 years ago in Yola, Adamawa state, Haske went through primary and secondary education in the state capital and proceeded to the top of the range Atiku Abubakar owned university to become a graduate of Information systems from the American University of Nigeria AUN. 

Like his late dad, he was very much focused on a career in business administration and joined the Lagos Business School, followed immediately by a stint at the Manchester Business School to acquire a measure of British business education. 

The need for a British grounding in international business education drove him to the United Kingdom where the Financial Times became like a daily bible.

The young Haske soon got firmly grounded in running their family business with his senior brother where he  also found that politics was a natural habitat that should not be ignored, joined the All Progressive Congress, APC, where he made good friends who were quick to see the positive leadership qualities in his dna. 

His business interests coupled with his young age did not limit him to aim for a lower position in the political arena instead he fancied a gubernatorial seat which his older brother supported.

He is a member of the institute of directors, he is into Agriculture and it's value chain and owns the biggest rice mill in the North East, into ICT and AI solutions, Construction, logistics, oil and gas, Aviation. 

Haske is a generous philanthropist, a passionate polo player. A grassroot politician, in his mid thirties, married with wife children.

Apparently, the APC in Adamawa state is excited about his candidacy and the young party members in the state are very much super excited. I mentioned his name to a friend from Adamawa and he did not waste time to declare that Haske was their next governor after outgoing incumbent Governor Fintiri, who a few weeks ago joined APC from the PDP following the wave of defections that saw the APC devowering virtually all the PDP governors in the country.

In response to the chronic shortage of well-trained artisans in Nigeria’s construction and building industry, professionals and building materials manufacturing firms have intensified efforts to address the gap. 

The latest intervention is a training workshop designed to enhance the competence and professionalism of artisans in the sector.

The programme, tagged “Axion 2026 Builders Challenge Abuja,” was organised by Axion Africa, a leading building materials manufacturing company, in collaboration with builders, architects and other key stakeholders. 

The event, held in Gudu, Abuja, attracted artisans from various trades as well as industry professionals, who shared insights on challenges affecting performance and practical solutions to overcome them.
Speaking at the workshop, the Manager of Axion Abuja, Mr. Tochukwu Eze, noted that the initiative was driven by growing concerns over the numerous challenges confronting Nigeria’s building and construction sector.

“At Axion Africa, our mission is to transform the construction industry in Africa by providing innovative and sustainable building solutions that empower communities, drive economic growth and promote environmental stewardship,” he said.

Eze emphasised the company’s commitment to excellence in product development and customer service, stressing the need for artisans to continuously upgrade their skills through training and seminars. 

He also cautioned against unethical practices, such as collaborating with developers to cut corners through the use of substandard materials or insufficient quantities.

In her goodwill message, the Assistant Secretary of the Nigeria Institute of Building. (NIOB) Mrs. Victoria Gana, commended Axion Africa for organising the workshop. She urged participants to apply the knowledge gained in order to reduce unprofessional practices in the industry.

Gana highlighted that the combination of inferior building materials and incompetent artisans remains a major cause of defective structures in the country.
“If there is proper control of building materials and we have competent artisans involved in construction, we will witness a significant reduction in the menace of substandard practices,” she said. 

She further encouraged youths who may not pursue formal education to embrace vocational skills as a viable and productive career path.

One of the participants, Joshua Irgior, expressed appreciation to the organisers and pledged that trainees would make effective use of the knowledge acquired to improve their craft and contribute meaningfully to the industry.

The company also used the occasion to launch new products, including Polycoat (for liquid marble), Totalcrete for tiling walls and floors, as well as materials for plastering, Tyrolean finishing, block moulding and tile fixing.

At the end of the workshop, outstanding participants were recognised and rewarded. The awardees included Mustapha Raji (Tiling), Samson Ojo (Screeding), Ahmadu Usman (Screeding) and Saidu Abubarka (Decorative Design).

Axion Africa, a subsidiary of Axion Canada, is a leader in the development, distribution and application of organic liquid monomer formulations for global road and building construction industries. 

The company’s technologies, originally developed by the U.S. military for rapid airstrip deployment during the Gulf War, have since been adapted for commercial use while retaining their high-performance standards.
