Amb. Iwobi’s statement stressed the need to invest in research, agricultural support programmes, climate-resilient agriculture, food intervention programmes, digital agriculture, land security, seed security, mechanisation, access to credit and food production, which according to her, will help encourage Nigerians to leverage the outcomes of the United Nations Food System Summit by investing more in research and food production.

Amb.

His leadership and vision for transforming Nigeria’s agricultural sector through innovative, technology-driven strategies and private-sector-led growth are truly inspiring. His emphasis on climate-aligned agricultural investments, scaling up food production, and supporting small holder farmers resonated deeply are deeply encouraging,” she said.

 

Her statement also acknowledged the Minister of Agriculture and Food Security, Senator Abubakar Kyari, for representing Nigeria’s agricultural interests at the summit. “The presence of the Minister and his entourage underscored the Nigerian government’s commitment to food security and sustainable agricultural practise,” she added.

 

The International Association of World Peace Advocates is an organisation that promotes peace and sustainable development. The African Food Action Club is part of IAWPA’s efforts to address food security and promote agricultural development in Africa.
