While on agriculture, he highlighted the state’s significant investments in agriculture aimed at ensuring food security, fostering economic growth, and driving rural development.
He added that governor Namadi revitalized agriculture in Jigawa State and Nigeria at large, which resulted in increased access to inputs, thus provided farmers with 240,000 bags (12,000 metric tons) of fertilizer at a 40 per cent subsidy, that made critical inputs more affordable.
This is not only commendable but worthy of emulation for other governors in the country,” he said.
