Kano Empowers 784 Youths in Agriculture

On Thursday February 6th 2014, Bnot Harel Nig had the honor of participating in a conference to promote the agriculture among the youth in Kano State, Nigeria. 

The honorable Rabiu Kwankwaso, the governor of Kano State attended the ceremony as well as the honorable commissioner of agriculture, Dr. Sani Baraka, government officials, school principals, several hundreds of young students and companies which some of them are our customers. 

The government has taken steps to get young farmers involved in the future of farming  through its inauguration of Young Famers Club in secondary schools in the state and the graduation ceremony for 300 youths.

The innovation was initiated to create employment and to also develop the agricultural sector in the state, with a honey processing plant being installed to compliment the training.

The Kano State Governor, Rabiu Kwankwaso, in his speech, highlighted the role of agriculture in the development of Nigeria, noting that agriculture had been Nigeria’s mainstay in the 1960s before oil was discovered.

He stated that his administration was committed to programs that would develop the agricultural sector in the state, as well as create employment and promote food security, with empowering the youths in the process, as a priority.

He added that it was gratifying to see the calibre of people present at the event to encourage youths towards embracing agriculture as career and business.
