Rep. Oseni empowers Oyo farmers with fertilisers
Rep. Aderemi Oseni (APC-Oyo) has distributed 5,206 bags of fertilisers to farmers in Ido/Ibarapa East Federal Constituency.
Oseni distributed the fertilisers in Ibadan under President Bola Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda.
He said the initiative would boost agricultural productivity and improve farmers’ livelihoods.
Oseni, Chairman, House Committee on Federal Road Maintenance Agency (FERMA), said the initiative was one of many efforts to support citizens.
“This fertiliser distribution is to fulfil the desired agenda of President Tinubu, in his Renewed Hope Agenda for making life easy for our people, particularly in the area of agriculture.
“Putting an end to poverty, promoting prosperity that is for all as a nation.
“Because we have sufficiently educated them on importance of this material and the importance of them putting it into use in the course of their farming activities,” he said.
He urged farmers to use the fertilisers wisely and promised continued advocacy for improved living conditions.
“My advice to the beneficiaries is for them to ensure that it is used as advised and not sold out,” he said.
Dr Florence Omonele, Oyo State Coordinator, Federal Ministry of Agriculture and Food Security, represented by Mrs Folake Abdu-Lateef, urged farmers to apply the fertilisers appropriately.
Beneficiaries thanked Oseni, saying the support would ease their challenges and enhance productivity.
