Governor Nwifuru Empowers 200 Ebonyi Youths in Modern Farming
Rt. Hon. Francis Ogbonna Nwifuru, on his recent visit to CSS Global Integrated Farms in Gora, Nasarawa State, celebrated the success of 200 young Ebonyians who completed an intensive agricultural training program aimed at transforming Ebonyi’s agricultural landscape.
In a post shared on his X handle, he acknowledged the young trainees’ dedication and efforts, emphasizing how this initiative is part of his administration’s broader mission to enhance food security and empower the youth of Ebonyi State.
The 200 trainees participated in a hands-on program designed to teach them various forms of agriculture, from food production and processing to specialized areas like poultry and fish farming.
The training also covered critical areas in the agricultural value chain, equipping them with both operational and management skills to start their ventures.
Nwifuru’s administration views this training as a significant step toward economic development, as these new skills allow young people to become self-reliant while contributing to the state’s food production goals.
Nwifuru expressed gratitude to Prof. John Kennedy Opara, Chairman of CSS Global Integrated Farms, and his management team for providing top-tier training.
Under Opara’s leadership, CSS Farms has become a recognizedcentrer for agricultural innovation and education, helping transform traditional farming practices in Nigeria.
Through this partnership, Nwifuru’s government aims to strengthen Ebonyi’s agricultural output and make farming a viable and rewarding option for the youth.
The governor also shared plans to support these young graduates as they put their skills into practice.
He committed to empowering them with resources and guidance to establish thein farms, a step he believes will boost local food production and open job opportunities for others.
Nwifuru assured that the state government will closely monitor their progress, ensuring they receive the necessary support while encouraging them to pass on their skills and knowledge to others back home.
Nwifuru’s vision is not just about developing individual farmers but creating a ripple effect that will benefit the entire state.
The governor’s visit ended on a high note, with him extending his congratulations to the trainees and his gratitude to the CSS Farms team.
Former Kaduna Central Senator Shehu Sani declines invitation to judge the Miss World Nigeria Beauty Pageant.
It was reported that the position of a judge was offered to Shehu Sani by Ben Murray Bruce, founder of Silverbird Group. However, Sani rejected the offer to judge the event.
Ben Bruce takes to social media to invite the former senator to be present at the event and sit as a judge.
Shebu Sani then responded by stating “You should have send me a formal letter and with full benefits attached to it after I have passed the Judgment. I appreciate the honour from a good friend. Unfortunately, I’ll be unavailable on that day. I wish you a successful outing.”
Nigerian Comedian, Mr Macaroni expresses dissatisfaction with the Governor of Lagos State over traffic issues.
It can be reported that Lagos has been suffering through a serious traffic phase. The reason behind this was revealed to be the Independence Bridge repairs.
Governor Sanwo Olu then pleaded with Lagosians to bear with the traffic as the repair is necessary. “Let’s think outside the box. If you don’t have business to do in Victoria Island in the next 2 to 3 weeks, conduct your business online and plan ahead.”
However, Mr Macaroni reacts to the Governor’s plea by stating “If the government had any regard whatsoever for the people of Lagos, these measures and more extensive ones would have been taken before yesterday to make this process as painless as possible for the people.”
He lamented on the serious effect that this traffic has taken on people’s day to day life and shared that the government didn’t consider its people.
Michelle Obama recently shared that when she first met Barack Obama, he wasn’t “financially sound.”
The couple crossed paths in 1988 when Barack joined a law firm in Chicago, where Michelle was already working. On a recent podcast episode she hosts with her brother, Craig, Michelle reflected on the importance of financial stability in a relationship.
During a conversation with British author Jay Shetty, Craig asked Michelle, “Would you be attracted to a guy who’s not financially stable when you meet him?”
Without hesitation, Michelle replied, “Uh, I married one.”
Craig, who seemed to have set her up for that response, laughed and jokingly said, “Don’t you like that alley-oop I just threw you? In basketball, you just point—you don’t even have to say it.”
