Kano community residents cry for help over erosion threat

By Jabiru Hassan, Kano.

The residents of Gwamai Bayan Makaranta of Gwamai Town in Dawakin Tofa local government area of Kano State have called on the stakeholders on environment to save them from the erosion that is becoming a threat to their residences and farmlands.

The spokesperson of the Bayan Makaranta residents Malam Auwalu Bala Gwamai told NatureNews.Africa that their houses and farmlands are in danger due to the effects of erosion that are making deep holes in their houses and farmlands especially during rainfall seasons.

Auwalu Bala added that” We thank the chairman of Dawakin Tofa local government council Alhaji Ado Tambai Kwa who constructed a wide drainage that reduced the high impact of the erosion despite the financial scarcity facing local councils, and we hope that his Governor Abdullahi Umar Ganduje and other relevant stakeholders would come to the rescue of the residents as well as their farmlands from total invasion by the erosion.”

Our reporter who visited the eroded area reported that government’s urgent intervention is very vital because houses and farmlands were seriously affected and they were in need of total control to save the residents and their farmlands.

Furthermore, NatureNews.Africa gathered that from what was happening around Gwamai Bayan Makaranta residential area, there was need for the ministries of environments, ecological funds projects, and other stakeholders to visit the place located on Kano-Bichi-Katsina road.
