March 21, (THEWILL) – A Chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Ondo State, Otunba Yomi Akingbade, has congratulated the President-elect, Bola Ahmed Tinubu and his Vice, Alhaji Kasim Shettima, on their electoral victory and expressed hope that the Nigerian populace and farmers would benefit bountifully from the agricultural policy to be initiated by their government.
Akingbade, who is an agriculturalist, stated this on Tuesday, in a statement, while appreciating Nigerians for electing Tinubu as President and Shettima as Vice President respectively.
The businessman said Tinubu and Shettima’s victory in the February 25 presidential election was divine, adding that the incoming government will bring prosperity and growth to the country.
He pointed out that Tinubu’s agricultural policy will ensure food security and employment for the populace and particularly, the youths.
“As a farmer and an agriculturalist, I want to believe that the agricultural sector has not been given adequate or much attention by the Federal Government, and this is one area we want the President-elect, Tinubu to focus on to exploit and harness the socio-economic potentials in the agric sector,” Akingbade said.
He also called on farmers in the country, particularly the All Farmers Association of Nigeria (AFAN), to strongly collaborate and work with Tinubu to give proper attention to the agric sector.
