The King of Gaya Farming Requested Governor Abba to Introduce a New Plan for Agricultural Development
Our recommendation to Engineer Abba Kabir Yusif Abba Gida-Gida, the governor of Kano, is to present the farmers of Kano with a fresh strategy to advance agriculture under his administration that the farmers would never forget, similar to the efforts of the late Alhaji Audu Bako.
Alhaji Ibrahim Yakubu Tagahu, the Emir of Agriculture of the Kingdom of Gaya, provided this information during an interview with our correspondent.
He continued, "because Kano has foundations, such as Education, Reading, Agriculture, Royalty, and Business, and most of the people in Kano are farmers and traders, and now it is estimated that Kano is blessed with a population that You are about 20 million in estimation, despite the distribution of Kano and the population census since 2006, it has been about 17 years since I think that we have farmers in Kano will be more than 15 million, which you can see is more than the population of the city of Lagos
The Honourable Governor of Kano State, Engineer Abba Kabir Yusif Abba Gida-Gida, who is also our son and grandson, was elected, considering the history of the new governor of Kano, Alhaji Abba Kabir Yusif, who is related to the history of Gaya, Alhaji Ibrahim said after celebrating the successful completion of the election of the president, senators, federal and state representatives, and governors in Nigeria.
"Everyone knows that Kano is a fertile agricultural nation with a vast area of land that receives all the seeds of the world," he continued. I think it will grow based on the plants we have if it is planted in Kano. Sorghum, millet, maize, rice, soybeans, beans, peanuts, Accha, wheat in the summer, and many more types of grain foods are consumed during the summer and the rainy season.
Also planted in Kano are groundnuts, which account for at least 60% of all groundnuts produced in Nigeria. Cotton is also grown there year-round, along with cassava, potatoes, Makani, and Gwaza. Onion, yakuwa, Doborodo, Rama, and other crops are all grown. Sugarcane is farmed in Kano in places like Takanda and Laiyahu. If the Kano government or the federal government makes a deal, all of these items may be offered on a single farm. Millions of young people won't need to visit offices or businesses to hunt for jobs because they will all be self-employed. This won't be achievable unless President Ahmad Bola Tunubu leads the federal government and the administration of Kano is led by Abba Gida-Gida.
The Emir of Agriculture of Gaya then spoke about the issues facing farmers in Kano, saying, "Some of the issues facing farmers in Kano are the shortage of agricultural trucks and modern tools, as well as the lack of land for summer farming. We want a better system to support us. In order to increase the amount of agricultural land available to many people, Kano's dams, which date back to the late Audu Bako and the state's inception in 1966, must be abandoned and destroyed. our young people from Kano.
"In the same way, whenever Abba Gida-Gida's government or Tunubu's will support farmers, it is necessary to find the situation of the farmers, their leaders, and their kings, as well as the kings, the fathers of the community, and the other president who The community sees their value. However, the politics of distributing agricultural subsidies, we as true farmers do not benefit from this system, and today farmers are suffering from the cost of fertilisers, seeds, Since they are currently pricey, we need a solid plan to aid Kano's farmers in developing their industry.
I commend the new governor of Kano for his passion for education, health, economy, business, drinking water, Kano development, security, and job creation. "Similarly, our advice to anyone who will be given the position of Commissioner of the Ministry of Agriculture and other leadership of KASCO, Kanarda, and other agricultural development institutions in Kano should be given to someone who knows the business and is passionate about the business." He spoke.
At the conclusion, Alhaji Ibrahim Yakubu Tagahu, the ruler of the farming emirate of Gaya, said: "On behalf of the ruler of Gaya, Dr. Ibrahim Abdulkadir, we salute this year's pilgrims who performed the Salar with us, and we wish the emirates of Gaya and Kano and Nigeria to have enough security and peace for the entire Nigerian people." He clarified.
