<p>The Kano Patriotic Front, popularly known as Rundunar Kishin Kano (RKK), has pledged to plant 22 million trees across all 44 local government areas of Kano State and will honour of the late General Murtala Muhammad. This was disclosed by the Head of the Front, Retired Major General Ibrahim Sani, while addressing journalists ahead of the group’s second anniversary celebrations.</p>
<p>According to Major General Ibrahim Sani, the initiative is part of RKK’s climate change campaign, with a target of planting 500,000 trees in each local government. He revealed that so far, 40,000 trees have already been planted, stressing that the mission is not only to plant but to physically participate in the greening of Kano.</p><div class="dj3tlH6e" style="clear:both;float:left;width:100%;margin:0 0 20px 0;"><script async src="https://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script>

<p>Speaking further, Major General Ibrahim Sani explained that the second anniversary of RKK will be marked tomorrow at the Trade Fair Complex, Kano Chamber of Commerce. He emphasized that the organization’s vision goes beyond tree planting, noting that Kano has lost its position as the centre of trans-Saharan trade and must reclaim its relevance through sustainable development.</p>

<p>Addressing the menace of thuggery, known locally as Daba, Major General Ibrahim Sani said RKK has successfully reduced the activities of thugs in several areas, including Rimin Zango and Kofar Mata. He explained that many of the youths involved in thuggery have been empowered with skills and employment opportunities, transforming them into full-fledged workers.</p>
<p>In partnership with HYSADEF, Major General Ibrahim Sani noted that RKK has provided safe drinking water by constructing boreholes in Kano metropolis and rural areas. He added that these efforts have helped reduce waterborne diseases, while antenatal kits have been donated to hospitals to support maternal health and emergency response.</p>
<p>On education, Major General Ibrahim Sani revealed that RKK has opened clinics in schools and supplied teaching materials such as record books. He said science schools have been equipped with laboratories and skeletons to aid learning, while teachers’ needs are being addressed to improve the quality of education.</p>
<p>Women empowerment is also a key focus of RKK. Major General Ibrahim Sani disclosed that many women have been supported with â¦25,000 capital to start small businesses, helping them achieve financial independence. He stressed that the tree planting campaign will prioritize economic trees such as tamarind, which provide both environmental and economic benefits.</p>
<p>As part of the anniversary celebrations, Major General Ibrahim Sani announced that awards will be presented to deserving individuals from Kano in the diaspora who have contributed to the state’s development. He lamented that General Murtala Muhammad, despite being recognized and honoured outside Kano, has not been adequately celebrated within the state.</p>
<p>Major General Ibrahim Sani added that the 22 million tree project is not only a tribute to the late General Murtala Muhammad but also a legacy initiative to combat climate change, empower communities, and restore Kano’s pride as a centre of progress.</p>
