It stated that the representative of the District Head of Gamawa, Mohammed Babayo, who spoke on behalf of the farmers, appreciated the government for the dam.
Babayo, on the other hand, urged NALDA to provide farmers in the area with additional inputs such as improved seeds, fertilisers, pesticides, herbicides, and access roads.
He stated that the farmers were eager to donate more land for clearing and were open to further collaboration with NALDA, emphasising that this was the first time the villages had felt the presence of the Federal Government.
