Francis Sardauna in Katsina
The Katsina State Governor, Dikko Umaru Radda, has unveiled a N5.7 billion hybrid goat rearing empowerment scheme for 40,000 rural women and large scale farmers across the 34 local government areas of the state.
While flagging off the distribution of the goats to the beneficiaries at Dan-Kola Farm Centre, Daura, Monday, Radda said the initiative was part of his government’s efforts to make Katsina a leading hub for livestock production in Nigeria.
