She was speaking when executive members of the Kano Property Agents Development Association (KPADA) visited her.

“We want Kano State to be among the best cities in the world in terms of land management and administration,’’ Braji said.

The permanent secretary called on land agent associations, private developers, and individuals to cooperate with the management and to consult with Town Planners for advice before creating private layouts.

Earlier, KPADA chairman, Alhaji Aminu Attaqwa, pledged the association’s support for the bureau.

He said the executive members would sensitise its members and the general public on the dangers inherent in creating illegal private layouts.
