In a bid to bolster Nigeria's agricultural sector and enhance food security, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is slated to commission 1000 tractors and supplementary agricultural machinery in Niger State. The announcement comes following a meeting between President Tinubu and Governor Umaru Bago at Aso Villa earlier today.
Governor Bago, accompanied by key members of his administration, presented his agricultural initiatives to President Tinubu during the productive discussions. Impressed by the state's commitment to agricultural development, President Tinubu graciously accepted Governor Bago's invitation to inaugurate the substantial fleet of tractors and additional equipment procured by the Niger State government.
In his commendation of Governor Umaru Bago's visionary efforts, President Tinubu highlighted the pivotal role Niger State is poised to play in advancing the federal government's food security agenda. The commissioning of these agricultural assets signifies a significant stride towards harnessing the state's agricultural potential and fostering economic prosperity for its citizens.
The inauguration ceremony, expected to draw dignitaries and stakeholders from across the nation, stands as a testament to the collaborative efforts between the federal and state governments in driving sustainable agricultural development and ensuring food sufficiency for all Nigerians.
