This was contained in a statement issued on Monday by the governor’s spokesperson Sanusi Bature.

Governor Yusuf made this plea during a dinner held at government house in Kano, where he entertained representatives from the donor organizations supporting the LLF-funded project.

The Governor stressed that Kano, as the most populous state in the northern region of the country, requires the aid of such organizations to empower the burgeoning population of unemployed young men and women and assist the most marginalized individuals in improving their quality of life.
