The governor Mohammed Umaru Bago, represented by his deputy, Yakubu Garba, expressed delight with the idea of establishing the first ranch in Niger State, considering its comparative advantage to other States.

He noted that the development of livestock in Nigeria has become imperative based on its value chain and economic value, assuring that the state is well-positioned to ensure that the federal government’s livestock development initiative thrives in the state.
