The governor of Benue state Samuel ORTOM has called on the people of the state to return to agriculture as the allocation from the federation allocation continue to drop coupled with the activities of the Niger delta avengers.

Benue state is the food basket of Nigeria, the land is vast and fertile from orokam to Jootar, and from Jato Acka to Yelewata.

He was pictured at his Oracle farm Gbajimba clearing weeds and also washing his hands in Vena stream after work today at his farms. Rice, soya beans and are grown on the farm.


We can do without oil if we put our land to use adequately. The governor is leading by example and is always on his farms giving any available time out of his tight schedule. Don't leave bushes around your yard, clear them and put the land to use, this will even discouraged grazing on your land. Plant a seed today.

Exact meaning of leading from 'the front lines'

At least he's manages to visit when harvesting is near.

This is what the nigerian government should look into. At least they should remember the meaning of our national flag.
A large farm as this would require mechanized systems , now tell me d kind of youth that won't like to go to a farm in a protective cloth and driving clean tractors and harvesters .
Even a banking graduate will like to work in dis kind of farm . #effizzy job kiss

Must you wail at every instance? If he does nothing, you complain, if he doesn't, you wail. How many machines-tractors, harvesters etc have the governor of your state provided?

BTW, these are the evidence of the fraud perpetrated by the fedora doffing PhD holder who claimed to have transformed the agricultural sector without any form of mechanization. Transformation indeed!!!

Welcome development... But pls invest in mechanized farming instead, coupled with subsidised fertiliser supply for the farmers.

Agriculture is the new oil!!!!

When you refuse to protect your people from Fulani herdsmen?

Because you came into your farm with security?

When you are serious for your people, they will know.

Liverless entity like Enugu state governor!

Former Enugu state governor sullivan chime frustrated his deputy because the guy was so into agriculture. The guy had a poultry in his residence and that was one of the charges brought against him. I hope he is seeing what is happening now. Yeye dey smell.

This is not what we want. Kindly establish farm settlement schemes like the late Obafemi Awolowo did, build for a start 500 unit of two bedroom flat apartments, provide farm inputs, plant plantations while you a busy building the houses, so when you are done the plantations are almost ready for harvest.
Also allocate farm lands to settlers a minimum of 20hacters per settles in not in one spot in different locations within the settlement, grade access roads, provide domentaries where they can buy farm inputs, hire tractors, ploughers, arrowers and planters for a start .Involve agricultural banks to give grants for farming and animal husbandry.
Finally cost everything at a low interest rate while giving them a moratorium of 6months to a year to start paying back at a reduced feasible payment plan pending when they start harvesting their farms and plantations allocated to them.
If you do this but at the federal and start level, teeming unemployed youth will return back to the farms and Nigeria will be great again. No these scams you are putting up. If I get something like that, with a minimum of 10years repayment plan, I will gladly quit my job and go back the farm or work part time while farming full time.
Stop fooling us sir. Enough is enough. I rise.
