The farm also empowered 100 backyard poultry farmers with training and roosters to boost local production and nutrition to promote self-reliance and build grassroots prosperity through agriculture.

Speaking during the distribution exercise, Abubakar Inuwa Tata, the promoter, AIT Integrated Farms, said World Egg Day is a call to action to harness the potential of one of nature’s most powerful sources of nutrition.

“Each year, World Egg Day reminds us that a simple egg holds the power to nourish bodies, strengthen communities, and transform livelihoods. This year, as we mark the 2025 World Egg Day celebration, our commitment to nutrition and empowerment continues.

“We are proudly distributing 3,000 boiled eggs to school children across Gombe State, ensuring that every child touched by this initiative enjoys not just a meal, but a message of hope—that good nutrition is the foundation for learning, growth, and a brighter future,” Tata stated.

To mark the occasion, the farm also empowered 100 backyard poultry farmers with technical training and a rooster each to boost productivity in their local poultry ventures. Tata described the gesture as part of a broader effort to “build resilience from the grassroots, creating a ripple effect of knowledge, employment, and self-reliance within our communities.

“In the same spirit of shared prosperity, we are empowering 100 backyard poultry farmers with technical skills and one rooster each to enhance productivity and profitability in their local enterprises. This initiative is our way of building resilience from the grassroots—creating a ripple effect of knowledge, employment, and self-reliance within our communities.”

He added that the initiative aligns with the farm’s long-term vision of nutrition for everybody through consistent acts of compassion and empowerment. “By investing in people, we are nurturing a generation that values hard work, self-sufficiency, and the dignity of productive labour.”

One of the farm’s ambassadors, Hauwa Adamu Saraki, said they have started the egg distribution in the last five years, emphasising that the initiative primarily targets vulnerable children.

“We started the project five years ago. Our goal is to help children and their parents recognise the importance of eggs in their diet. We go around several schools in Gombe to give out these eggs purposely to celebrate World Egg Day. It’s our social responsibility,” she added.

According to her, the event brought smiles to the faces of hundreds of pupils, many of whom held their boiled eggs with pride and excitement, emphasising that it was more than just a meal but also a message of hope, nutrition, and inclusion.

Malam Bashir Aliyu Umar, Headmaster of Herwagana Primary School, commended the gesture, describing it as both generous and inspiring. “We truly appreciate the kindness of AIT Integrated Farms. Such acts make a real difference in the lives of our pupils. I call on other wealthy individuals in society to emulate this gesture and support initiatives that improve children’s welfare and nutrition.”

Expressing his joy, Mohammed Auwal, a pupil of Kamara Primary School, thanked the founder for the visit and the gift and prayed others to emulate him.

World Egg Day, celebrated every second Friday of October, was established by the International Egg Commission (IEC) in 1996 to raise global awareness of the nutritional benefits of eggs.

The day highlights how eggs serve as an affordable, high-quality source of protein essential for human development. Across the world, farmers, nutritionists, and food advocates use the occasion to promote egg consumption, especially among children and vulnerable populations, to tackle malnutrition and food insecurity.

In Nigeria, the celebration has become an opportunity to address the growing concerns of child malnutrition and food inequality. According to nutrition experts, eggs are one of the most complete natural foods, providing essential vitamins, minerals, and amino acids that support brain development and immunity in children. The day also serves as a platform to promote local poultry production as a pathway to economic empowerment and job creation.
