In its effort to complement the effort of the State Ministry of Environment, the Kano State Nigeria Erosion and Watershed Management Project (Kano-NEWMAP) has embarked on desilting of major drainages across the eight metropolitan Local Government Areas in the state.
The State Project Coordinator Alhaji Musa Shuaibu disclosed this in an interview with journalists during the flag up of the year 2020 drainage clearance exercise held at Kofar Nassarawa along the emir palace road in the State capital.
The Project Coordinator further stated that the activity has become a norm by the Project since its conception by the State Government under the State Ministry of Environment, supporting the Ministry’s proactive measures taken annually to contain flood eventualities during the rainy season.
