By: Jide Abdulazeez

The Chairman, Bwari Area Council, Dr. John Gbabaya, has flagged off the distribution of farm implements to the farmers in the Area Council.

The Chairman, who flagged off the distribution in Bwari, Thursday, urged the farmers to make use of the farm inputs judiciously to increase the yield of farm produce as well as improving food security in the nation’s capital.

Gbabaya appreciated the FCT Minister, Barrister Nyesom Wike, for his uncommon efforts that translated into what the Bwari farmers are benefiting from the Federal Government Agricultural interventions in the Council.

The Sarki Bwari, who was represented at the flag-off by Nagimba Jafar, commended the Council Chairman and urged the farmers to make use of the farm inputs not only during the rainy season but also encouraged them to embrace the dry season planting so as to boost food production to reduce hunger in the Bwari Area Council and the FCT at large.

The Esu Bwari, who was also represented at the occasion by Timothy Dakoyi, thanked the Council Chairman for this kind gesture and enjoined the farmers to effectively utilize the opportunity by ensuring that the inputs get to the desired beneficiaries.

He also promised to monitor the distribution exercise in such a way that they will not be sold out to those who are not the direct beneficiaries.
