The Kano State Government said it is recruiting 1,000 agricultural extension workers to work across the 44 local government areas of the state.
The Executive Secretary of Kano State Agro Pastoral Development Project (KSADP), Farouk Kurawa, stated this while briefing reporters on Monday at an event organised by the Sasakawa Africa Association, in Kano.
Mr Kurawa said when the new administration came on board (on 29 May) it saw the need for the urgent recruitment of health workers, teachers and agriculture extension workers because their numbers had significantly decreased due to deaths and retirement.
