Recall that the bill seeking to ban open grazing and establish ranches for herders in the country has passed a second reading at the Senate.
He added that ranching offers value addition and is more secure compared to open grazing, which often leads to conflicts. Despite significant security issues, Governor Radda highlighted that a substantial portion of land in Katsina is still being actively farmed. “My monthly allocation has not exceeded 10 billion Naira. When you look at the wage bill, pensions, and overhead costs, it takes over 50% of what we collect,” he said.
Radda criticized the one-size-fits-all approach to minimum wage in Nigeria, suggesting that each state should set wages based on its economic capabilities. On some of the achievement he has made since one year as governor in Katsina, the governor said insecurity has been greatly managed with the introduction of Katsina state community watch, which was enacted by the national assembly.
