Managing Director of the commission Abubakar Sadiq Yelwa was speaking during a high-level engagement with the Kebbi state governor Nasir Idris where far-reaching collaboration was brokered.
He says, so far fourteen local government areas in the state have received a widespread intervention in education, health, solar power, skills acquisition and safety equipment to minimize boat mishaps.
