The promise
Rural development, education, water and agriculture across the vast old Sokoto State (present-day Sokoto, Kebbi and Zamfara), on the NPN platform on which Shehu Kangiwa was elected in 1979.
Assessment
Kangiwa's administration pursued water, schooling and farm-support programmes in an arid, sparsely served region. Detailed, sourced delivery figures for the period are not available in the summary record.

The promise
Implicit in his 1979 election as governor of Sokoto State.
Assessment
Kangiwa died in 1981 from injuries sustained in a polo accident, the first serving Nigerian governor to die in office. His deputy, Garba Nadama, completed the term, was elected in his own right in 1983, and was removed by the December 1983 coup. The Birnin Kebbi stadium is named after Kangiwa.
