This was contained in a statement signed by the Mamman Mohammed, the DG Press and Media Affairs to the Governor Mai Mala Buni.
It said the governor stated this yesterday when the Resident Representative of the United Nations Development Programme in Nigeria Ms Elsie Attafuah, paid him a courtesy visit.
He said government would explore the huge agricultural, livestock and other natural resources in the state for massive investment opportunities to promote international trade.
He explained that the state government had in the previous years concentrated on rehabilitation and recovery programmes to resettle communities displaced by the insurgency.
“With the improvement in security in the state, we are now looking inwardly to explore and exploit the potentials in the state to develop investment opportunities” he assured.
He noted that as a leading state in sesame seeds and livestock production, government is investing in the two areas to make Yobe state an international hub for export of sesame seeds and livestock.
