Hon. (AVM Rtd) Ojuawo Rufus Adeniyi, representing Ekiti South Federal Constituency 1 at the green chamber, has launched the second phase of his farm empowerment project in Ogotun Ekiti.
The 5-hectare farm, part of a 20-hectare land generously donated by the Ologotun of Ogotun, aims to improve the lives of 32 constituents in Ekiti South West, specifically in Ilawe, Igbara Odo, and Ogotun Ekiti. The project focuses on cultivating high-demand crops, starting with pepper, and provides training, resources, and support to enhance livelihoods and stimulate economic growth.
“Agriculture is not just a means of livelihood but a pathway to economic empowerment,” emphasized Hon. Ojuawo.
This initiative builds on the success of the Ogbese Empowerment Farm, which benefited Ikere and Ise/Orun local governments. The Ojuawo Empowerment Farm demonstrates Hon. Ojuawo’s commitment to community empowerment through sustainable agriculture, paving the way for a brighter economic future in his constituency.
