Governor Inuwa Yahaya Positions Gombe State as a Climate-Smart Agricultural Leader Through GSU-Michigan State Partnership
In a groundbreaking move to advance climate-resilient farming, Governor Muhammadu Inuwa Yahaya has spearheaded the installation of a climate-smart agricultural system at Gombe State University (GSU) through a strategic partnership with Michigan State University (MSU), USA.
The newly installed system—housed under the Department of Geography—incorporates precision agriculture tools like weather detection, soil and atmospheric monitoring, and automated data analysis. It will significantly enhance research, evidence-based farming, and innovation across Gombe and beyond.
Governor Yahaya’s earlier visit to MSU laid the foundation for this partnership, which has already led to the donation of advanced facilities and plans for a dedicated Faculty of Agriculture at GSU. This initiative is poised to drive food security, sustainable livelihoods, and long-term economic transformation in Gombe State.
According to MSU and GSU officials, the project stands as a model for university-driven rural development in Nigeria.
