Governor Mai Mala Buni of Yobe State, has charged international bodies to check the bureaucratic bottlenecks in their organisations retarding speedy support to communities faced with humanitarian disasters.
“We are targeting food crops and sesame seed production and government is determined to provide the required input to make agriculture in Yobe State attractive, productive and profitable,” Buni emphasised.
The team led by Taimur Samad, Operations Manager and Acting Country Director, said the World Bank is willing to support the Yobe State Government to actualize its reconstruction, rehabilitation and recovery processes to improve the lives of the people.
Similarly, the MCRP task team, led by Fuad Malkawi, assured the governor of continued support in resettlement of displaced persons, and future plans on urban development in the state.
