Zamfara State Government has revealed plans to allocate N7.2 billion for the completion of the Gusau Investment House project. Abdurrahman Tumbido, the State Commissioner for Commerce, Industry, and Tourism, disclosed this in Gusau while addressing the media after defending the 2024 ministry’s budget at the State House of Assembly.
Governor Dauda Lawal presented a N423.5 billion Appropriation Bill for the 2024 fiscal year. The unfinished 10-storey investment house project was initiated during the tenure of former Governor Mahmud Shinkafi.
