Kwankwaso highlighted the appropriation of N95 billion for dam rehabilitation in Kano, secured by Senator Kawu Sumaila, as a significant step forward for the southern part of the state.
He also acknowledged the establishment of the North West Development Commission, driven by the efforts of Deputy Senate President Barau Jibrin, as a landmark initiative aimed at bringing prosperity to the region.

According to him, the rehabilitation of major dams, including Challawa Gorge Dam and Tiga Dam, under the leadership of Hon. Minister Joseph Utsev, will significantly enhance irrigation and agricultural productivity.
