He said his administration is already constructing a settlement for herders in a forest near Kano’s border with Katsina adding that the settlement will have houses, a dam, an artificial insemination centre, and a veterinary clinic.
“We are building a Ruga settlement in Samsosua forest, our border with Katsina and we have succeeded in curtailing the effect of banditry in that area,” Ganduje said.
“So, we are building many houses, we are constructing a dam; we are establishing a cattle artificial insemination centre, we are establishing a veterinary clinic and already we have started building houses for herdsmen.
