Speaking at the ceremony to disburse the funds in Maiduguri on Thursday, Satomi said the gesture is part of an effort towards reducing the negative effects of the current economic hardship in the country as well as boosting agricultural activities in his constituency.

He explained that the beneficiaries were carefully selected from different areas within his constituency and have received all necessary training for rearing and fattening of animals, agro-allied and another agricultural value chain.

The lawmaker noted agriculture as the only solution to the current Nigeria’s economic challenges.

Among the 160 beneficiaries, Satomi said 91 farmers received one million naira each, while the rest got N500,000 each to start rearing goats and sheep.
