The House further noted that many youths in Zamfara are engaged in formal activities, creating employment opportunities and contributing to poverty reduction.

The lawmakers urged people of the state to keep praying and supporting the Lawal-led administration in its quest to deliver the dividends of democracy to all irrespective of political party differences.
