The construction of the landmark Yobe City Mall in Damaturu continues to advance with notable momentum, underscoring Governor Mai Mala Buni’s steady push to strengthen the state’s commercial backbone through long-term, growth-focused infrastructure.

Rising beside the newly completed overhead bridge, the project has become a visible reminder of the administration’s commitment to creating an environment where businesses can flourish and residents can access modern commercial services within their own state. Engineers on-site confirm that structural work is progressing in line with contemporary standards, supported by coordinated planning and consistent supervision.

Designed as a modern commercial hub, the Yobe City Mall will feature over 200 shops, food courts, banking facilities, security offices, central air-conditioning, and a well-organized parking area. Its layout mirrors the functionality of successful malls in states such as Kwara and Niger, where similar developments have expanded economic activities and boosted local revenue.

Photographs from 12th November 2025 show significant strides in foundational and structural components, with artisans and contractors working to ensure the project meets its design expectations. For many residents, the ongoing construction represents more than physical development; it symbolizes a shift toward a more vibrant, business-friendly Damaturu.

The mall will play a crucial role in shaping Yobe’s urban economy, providing space for emerging entrepreneurs, strengthening the retail sector, and creating opportunities for youth employment. The project aligns with broader efforts to diversify the state’s economic base and improve quality of life through functional and accessible infrastructure.

Community members express optimism that the Yobe City Mall will enhance the overall commercial appeal of the state capital, offering residents and visitors a modern marketplace that reflects Yobe’s forward-moving trajectory.

As construction continues, the project stands as a testament to careful planning, purposeful governance, and a sustained commitment to building structures that support long-term prosperity across the state.
