elementary number theory - A sequence divisible by 9

I was trying to solve this series by mathematical induction for every $n$ from $\Bbb N$ : $u_n=n4^{n+1}-(n+1)4^n+1$ is divisible by $9$.



The initiation was pretty easy, but I only managed to prove $u_{n+1}=3k$ while $k$ is an integer and I don't think if it's divisible by $3$ implies that it is divisible by $9$ ; is it ? if not how can I proceed to prove the divisibility ? by mod maybe? thanks in advance for your answer
