The governor gave the advice while speaking at an interactive session with members of All Sunshine Youth Agricultural Employment Association, held at the Governor’s office in Akure on Wednesday.

Represented by his deputy, Olayide Adelami, the governor encouraged the youths to see agriculture as a money-spinning business that is sustainable.

He said, “I must commend you for putting yourselves together into an association to pursue agriculture as a business. Our government has taken-off well in this area and I am sure you will continue to benefit from the many programs we have and the ones we are about to roll out.

“The starting point is to use you to encourage and re-orientate our youths on the need to take agriculture serious and make a living out of it,” a statement by spokesperson to deputy governor, John Paul Akinduro, said.
