Meet Our Executive Secretary

Alhaji Umar Sani Maikudi, Executive Secretary of KADSIPA, is a dedicated leader advancing Governor Uba Sani’s vision for poverty reduction and social equity in Kaduna State. Appointed to drive social investment initiatives, he oversees programs like the National Social Investment Programmes (NSIPs), impacting over 1.5 million beneficiaries since 2016. In 2025, he led the launch of a transformative Graduation Program set to empower 1,200 citizens through financial inclusion and self-employment, in partnership with the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and J-PAL. Maikudi’s hands-on approach, seen in his monitoring of debit card distributions under the NASSP-SU program across Chikun and Kaduna North LGAs, ensures transparent and effective support for vulnerable households. His leadership fosters inclusive policies, as demonstrated at the 2025 Zaria workshop to review Kaduna’s Social Protection Policy with UNICEF and other stakeholders
