The All Progressives Congress (APC) Katsina governorship candidate, Dr Dikko Radda, has promised to set up an agricultural processing centre in the Dandume Local Government Area of the state.
Radda revealed this when he addressed supporters at a campaign rally in Dandume town.
The Director, Media and Publicity of APC campaign council Alhaji Ahmed Abdulkadir stated this in a statement on Wednesday in Katsina.
Abdulkadir quoted Radda as telling his supporters that he was aware that the people of the town were predominantly large scale farmers.
“Radda said establishing a centre to process their products would not only preserve and save them from loss, but would also provide jobs for their unemployed youths.
“He also said he would reintroduce extension services to enhance their farming activities.
“`The candidate, similarly, noted that what the people needed was mechanized and modern farming methods to boost agricultural activities in the area.
“The APC Katsina governorship candidate also said he would build a bigger hospital for the community,’’ he said.
