To meet accreditation requirements set by the National Universities Commission (NUC), Dr. Malle stated that the council has approved the provision of 365 hectares of land in Garin Tafida, Yamaltu Deba LGA, for demonstration farms and academic purposes.

“The land is expected to serve as a practical learning site for students and will further diversify the agricultural landscape of the state,” he said.

"While the Inuwa Yahaya administration remains committed to investing in water supply for the people, the aspect of revenue generation will also be prioritized through the review of the water billing system", he added.

Regarding the status of work at the booster stations, the Commissioner confirmed that all stations have been completed and are currently being managed by the contractor.

Gombe Governor Chairs Joint Development Council Meeting

…Council Approves Installation of Solar Street Light at Tumfure, Nafada Communities

…'Kantoma Market in Billiri to be Upgraded to Storey Structure'

Gombe State Governor, Muhammadu Inuwa Yahaya, CON, on Tuesday, presided over the 6th meeting of the Gombe State Joint Development Project Council, during which far- reaching decisions were made to improve infrastructure across communities in the state.

Speaking at a press briefing session which was chaired by the Commissioner for Local Government, Abdulkadir Mohammed Waziri, shortly after the meeting, the Director-General of the Joint Project Development Agency, Bldr. Mahmood Yusuf, disclosed some of the key resolutions approved by the council.

He said approval has been granted for the installation of solar-powered streetlights across the newly constructed roads in Tumfure, Akko local government at a construct sum of 1.1 Billion Naira, as well as some communities in Nafada Local Government Area which include Birin Fulani, Birin Bolawa, Barwo Winde, Barwo Nasarawo, Jigawan Nafada and Gudukku at a contract sum of 681 Million Naira

On the upgrade of the Kantoma Market in Billiri into a one storey building, Dr. Yusuf disclosed that the project had earlier been awarded during the council’s 4th meeting at a contract sum of 420 million Naira, after which the Billiri LGA Chairperson wrote to request for its upgrade into a storey building to boost local commerce and enhance revenue generation, and a sum of 213 million has been approved for the conversion.

The Director-General further disclosed that additional works have been approved at the the newly established NALDA market in Kwadon, Yamaltu/Deba local government, including the upgrade of the water scheme, provision of perimeter fence around the water tank especially the control area, and construction of 4 fetching points to allow for adequate utilization of the project, awarded at a contract sum of 19 million Naira.

Meanwhile, the Chairman of Kwami Local Government, Ass. Prof. Ahmed Wali Doho, who also heads a sub-committee overseeing a verification exercise for local government workers across the state, briefed the press on critical findings from the ongoing screening.

According to him, the interim report submitted on the verification exercise, which ran from 12th June to 3rd July 2025 and focused initially on staff of the Local Education Authority (LEA), revealed the large-scale payroll fraud so far uncovered, saying “A total of 686 individuals failed to show up to prove they are legitimate workers. They were still drawing salaries, which amounted to N31 million.”

He added that another finding indicates that in the April payroll, 265 workers - some deceased, others retired - were still receiving monthly pay and the amount realized under this was N36 million.

He further stated that the committee has found that 258 staff members, who were supposedly on loan to other government agencies or departments, were collecting double salaries, a practice that contravenes civil service regulations, “This alone has cost the state N67 million”, Doho stated.

He emphasized that as the exercise continues, the goal is not to witch-hunt anyone but to ensure payroll integrity, block financial leakages and create room for fresh recruitment, particularly in critical sectors across the local government areas.

Governor Inuwa Yahaya Clears More Gratuity Backlogs for LG Retirees
..Over N2 Billion Disbursed in Latest Tranche, as Total Payments Since 2019 Hit N25.6 Billion
..Gombe Governor Targets Zero Gratuity Debt by 2027

Gombe State Governor, Muhammadu Inuwa Yahaya, CON, has flagged-off the disbursement of another tranche of backlog gratuity payments to retired local government workers in the state.

Speaking during the official flag-off ceremony held at the Gombe Government House, Governor Inuwa Yahaya reaffirmed his administration's commitment to clearing all outstanding entitlements owed to retirees, both at the state and local government levels.

The Governor disclosed that since assuming office in 2019, his administration has so far paid over 25 billion in gratuities to both state and local government retirees across the 11 LGA's.

He noted that the latest tranche represents the sacred fulfilment of the government’s obligation to the civil servants (both retired and active) who dedicated their productive years in service to Gombe State.

“I am proud to announce that through disciplined financial management and unwavering commitment to the welfare of our civil servants both retired and active, we have so far disbursed 23.566 billion naira in gratuity payments over the past 6 years. With today's additional payment of NGN2,060,337,466.45 (two billion, sixty million, three hundred and thirty-seven thousand, four hundred- and sixty-six-naira, forty-five kobo), we have achieved a historic cumulative payment of 25.626 billion naira in gratuity payments from 2019 to date”, he stated.

“When we assumed office in 2019, we inherited over 21-billion-naira in gratuity backlogs; a sordid legacy of unmet obligations that weighed heavily on our retired civil servants. Our Local governments unable to pay salaries or meet their basic obligations. Between 2013 and 2019, the previous administration routinely borrowed funds in order to pay monthly salaries”, he added.

“With these efforts, I would like to reiterate our firm commitment to achieving zero gratuity liability by 2027 through sustained quarterly payments, innovative public financial management strategies and prudent fiscal planning”, the Governor reaffirmed.

Governor Inuwa Yahaya further disclosed that the disbursement will be made based on an equitable payment model where each local government will pay according to its financial capacity with Kwami, Nafada and Funakaye settling for their 2023 retirees; Akko, Billiri and Shongom for 2016 and 2017 retirees; Dukku for 2016 retirees; Balanga for 2015 and 2016 retirees; Gombe and Kaltungo for 2014 and 2015 retirees; and Yamaltu Deba for 2015 retirees.

Earlier speaking, the state Auditor-General and Chairman of the Committee on Payment of Gratuities, Muhammad Buba Gombe, commended Governor Inuwa Yahaya for his commitment to fulfilling the promise made to retired civil servants of ensuring the backlog of their entitlements neglected by the previous government, are settled.

He called on the senior citizens who are beneficiaries of the gratuity payments to utilize the funds judiciously to support their post-retirement livelihood and contribute meaningfully to the society.

Speaking on behalf of the retirees, Malam Umar Abdu Maude, described the payment as a “life-saving gesture,” noting that if the previous administration had taken similar action, the current government could have focused on other pressing development needs.

“Out of the Governor’s magnanimity, he has sacrificed significant resources to pay off gratuity backlogs that have accumulated for over ten years- long before he came into office. In the past, we were given false hopes. Many of our colleagues died due to hunger, poverty, and untreated health conditions. But today, after more than a decade, we are smiling to the banks. Under this administration, the deaths of retirees have decreased because on regular basis, our entitlements are being paid which we use to take care of our well being and attain to our health demands”, he added.

Highlight of the event was the symbolic presentation of cheques to retirees some of whom had left the civil service as far back as 2014.

Gombe State has once again earned national recognition as a model of good governance, inclusive reforms and strategic development, securing 7th place overall in the 2025 pcl. State Performance Index (pSPI) outperforming 30 other states across the federation.

This outstanding feat was detailed in the 2025 pcl. State Performance Index, compiled by leading advisory firm, Phillips Consulting (pcl.), one of Nigeria’s most comprehensive assessments of subnational performance.

The index ranks all 36 states and the FCT across key metrics, including governance, economic management, social development and infrastructure.

In most of the indices measured, Gombe State demonstrated an impressive performance and citizen satisfaction.

The state ranked 1st in both road quality and public hospital service delivery, clear evidence of the government’s commitment to infrastructure and accessible healthcare.

The state also secured 1st place in the Ease of Doing Business index, reflecting its investor-friendly regulatory environment and responsive institutions.

Also, Gombe ranked 2nd in both Security of Lives and Property and Environmental Cleanliness, reflecting the administration’s effective efforts in promoting peace, safety and sustainability across communities.

Other notable rankings of Gombe State include: 3rd in Affordability of Public Healthcare - driven in part by the successful implementation of the GoHealth insurance scheme and 5th in Public Transport Accessibility and Affordability of Education, affirming the state’s increasing support for vulnerable and underserved populations.

The pSPI report attributes this success to Governor Inuwa Yahaya’s political will, citizen-focused governance philosophy, and sustained reforms.

The report predicted that “Gombe is positioned to become Nigeria’s most surprising success story in the coming decade.”

The report further highlights the state’s potential and comparative advantages in agriculture, trade and an emerging industrial base.

These are fueled by targeted investments that continue to boost Gombe State's economic growth and attract national attention.

“Strategically located at the crossroads of Northeast and Central Nigeria, Gombe is evolving into a regional trade hub, driven by sustained peace, expanding infrastructure, and strong support for small and medium enterprises, which are reducing dependence on federal allocations,” the report noted.

The impressive ranking of Gombe and its national recognition highlight the effectiveness of Governor Muhammadu Inuwa Yahaya’s reform-oriented leadership, marked by a consistent focus on people-centred governance, transparency, infrastructure expansion and improved public sector performance.

Ultimately, the 2025 pSPI report validates the remarkable strides made under Governor Inuwa Yahaya’s leadership. With continued reform, fiscal discipline, and inclusive planning, Gombe is not just rising, it is setting a benchmark for other states to follow.
