Governor Lawal said the plan aligns with national and global frameworks, including the Sustainable Development Goals, Nigeria’s National Development Plan 2050, and the African Union Agenda 2063.
“It sets clear targets and a monitoring framework to ensure transparency,” he said, adding that the plan aims to position Zamfara as a model for economic transformation in Africa.
The governor said the state will leverage its strengths in agriculture and natural resources to spur mechanised farming, agro-processing, job creation, and food security.
He described the initiative as a turning point for the state, calling it a “purposeful plan” to restore stability and expand opportunities for citizens.
