Additionally, the next governor of this state, Dr. Nasir Idris, has reaffirmed his commitment to continuing the state-level agricultural revolution that the outgoing government began.”

Beforehand, Walid Soliman-Morsy, the head of RIFAN, notified the governor that the Egyptian specialists were in the state to collaborate on agricultural growth.

He said that through educating farmers and using cutting-edge agricultural techniques, technology, and knowledge, the experts were prepared to develop many hectares of Fadama land in the state.
