), Chief Afe Babalola, has rewarded outstanding farmers across Ekiti State as part of efforts to encourage farming and support farmers financially.
He regretted the neglect of the agriculture sector, saying the Federal Government could encourage farming by giving successful farmers national awards, instead of limiting it to politicians. Underscoring why government should give better attention to farmers, the legal icon said “farmers are going through very difficult time at the moment, especially due to the recent removal of fuel subsidy and suffocating loan conditions by banks.”
The Elemure of Emure-Ekiti, Oba Emmanuel Adebowale Adebayo, who spoke on behalf of other monarchs at the event, regretted that despite the fact that God gave the country fertile land and population, it could not feed itself not to talk of feeding Africa.
