Kebbi State still maintains its leading position in food production despite the recent flood disaster that destroyed many farmlands.

The State Commissioner for Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs, Rt. Honourable Hassan Muhammad made the assertion during a two-day workshop for the state’s farmers and stakeholders held in Sokoto.

The workshop was organized by the Proact, a support base for agriculture in the Northern part of Nigeria in collaboration with the European Union Support for Food Security and Resilience.

The Permanent Secretary in the state’s Ministry of Agriculture, Mr Joel Aiki, said the state has acquired about 4,000 tonnes of millet seeds to support dry season farmers, while another 5,000 tonnes seedlings were being expected from CBN.
