Ahmed remarked that the market was part of the commission’s efforts to promote economic activities in the North East subregion following the devastation arising from the insurgency.
He said the commission “is confident that the cattle market will boost business in the state”.
This is, considering that the market is one of the biggest cattle sales points in the state.
Ahmed commended Gov. Bala Mohammed for providing the land for the market.
