In order to ensure food security in the country, the Federal Government is sending 60 trucks of fertiliser to each of the states of the federation.

The Senate revealed the plan on Tuesday while debating on the food crisis at plenary, where he called on the Federal Government to expedite action on the fertiliser distribution.

It was gathered that each of the 109 senators will also receive two trucks of fertiliser for distribution to farmers in their constituents, while the 360 members of the House of Representatives will get one truck each to distribute in their constituencies

Good one, but whose hands the trucks end determines the success or otherwise of the gesture.

This is indeed a good initiatives. We only hope that the fertilizers get to the desired farmers.

There are farmers cluster that ought to get these fertilizer and distribute to their members and not to senators that have no farm or senators that will sell to the northern part if the country

FAAC allocation should be replaced with machinery and raw inputs. The states are too useless to handle money. What we have are billionaires emerging from paupers after 4 or 8 years as governors. They aggregate alocations, build senseless flyovers or structures in between their grass to grass rise.

Exactly. However, the good news is that Nasarawa govt has started the distribution. lets hope other recipients- govs, senators and co.- follow suit.
