The National President of Kulen Allah Cattle Rearers Association of Nigeria (KACRAN), Hon. Khalil Mohammed Bello has commended the North East Development Commission for providing water points to Livestock farmers.
Hon. Khalil Mohammed Bello revealed that, water scarcity is the major problem of animal production in most of the Northern States of the country, which means that provision of several water points by the commission will end the unnecessary suffering our people face for over hundred years due to either scarcity or lack of portable drinking water which in some cases force our people to migrate from one place to another in search of it.
The National President started this in a press statement issue said, the commission’s determination to end the lingering water problem make us the herders and our host communities to consider NEDC as a blessing to us, because apart from providing water to our people, the commission is also working assiduously to bring several important social services to our door steps.

KACRAN also thanked the Federal Government under the able leadership of President Muhammadu Buhari and the Honourable members of our National Assemblies for creating the commission to steadily develop the highly devastated region.
Passionately appeal to our able and esteemed members to thoroughly assess and fully consider the multiple important responsibilities the commission is shouldering on its neck and as a matter of utmost importance fund it adequately and release the money on time to enable it to perform excellently.
“Our appeal is necessitated due to the fact that, we fully observed that NEDC is playing a vital role towards reducing the problem of insurgency and other social vices by providing timely much desired necessary assistance to the victims of insurgency as well as empowering and supporting them which are so helpful in building new hope in the minds of the affected victims of the insurgency.”
“This therefore means that, given the commission all administrative and enough cash backing will enable it to continue moving in the right direction that will drastically reduce the tension in the entire North East sub-region and its neighbors.” Bello added.
Hon.Khalil Mohammed Bello thank the Managing Director of the commission, Dr Muhammad Alkali and Alhaji Muhammad Jawa Gashua, the Executive Director Admin and Finance and all the workaholic staff of the commission for their total commitment and sacrifices toward embarking on various developmental projects with a view to promote the living standard of the good people of the region and Nigerians by extension.
