In a further effort to modernize agricultural practices, Governor Yahaya visited Michigan State University (MSU) on September 21, 2024.

Additionally, Governor Yahaya has voiced concerns regarding the slow progress of the Kolmani gas project, which he believes is crucial for the state's development [f82157a5]. The Nigerian government, under President Tinubu's administration, is also addressing the ongoing conflicts between herders and crop farmers by establishing the Ministry of Livestock Development [0c7ccb1d]. This initiative is part of a broader strategy to enhance agricultural productivity and reduce food scarcity, which has been exacerbated by high inflation rates in Nigeria [1d43e8c9] [d033ed90].

Both Nigeria and Morocco are currently facing economic challenges, including high unemployment and corruption, prompting them to seek opportunities for economic growth through agriculture and other sectors [0cd5503f] [b333e3df]. As part of this effort, Nigeria is also looking to Morocco as a potential hub for the gaming industry, showcasing the diverse avenues for collaboration and development between the two nations [29f566b8] [4308c9c2].
