Zamfara Rep-Elect Subsidises Fertiliser By ₦8,000 Per Bag

***

House of Representatives-Elect, Abdulmalik Zubairu, (APC, Bungudu/Maru) in Zamfara State has inaugurated the sale and distribution of subsidised fertilisers to farmers in his constituency.


The News Agency of Nigeria reports that the sale and distribution of the fertilisers took place in Bungudu town, Bungudu Local Government Area of Zamfara State on Saturday.


NAN reports that the programme targets 5,000 farmers from the rural communities in Bungudu and Maru local government areas of Zamfara State.


Former Zamfara Commissioner for Education, Alhaji Ibrahim Danmalikin-Gidangoga who represented Zubairu at the inauguration said each bag of fertiliser would be sold at ₦11,000 instead of ₦19,000, a subsidy of ₦8,000.


He noted that the gesture aimed at encouraging rural farmers to do more.


“A total of 2,500 bags of fertiliser were provided for the inauguration; more fertiliser and other farming input would be provided to support farmers in the constituency.


“We are naturally blessed with fertile land suitable for farming in Zamfara State.


“As representatives of the people it is our responsibility to encourage food production and employment generation through agriculture.


“I believe many farmers, especially in rural communities, are facing challenges before getting fertiliser.


“I hope this intervention will reduce the challenges,’’ the representative of the lawmaker-elect said.


Commenting on the gesture, former Commissioner for Water Resources in Zamfara, Alhaji Sanda Danjari commended Zubairu for reaching out to the people at the grassroots.


“Farmers are grassroots people; they produce food for the people; I believe this will enhance farming in the state.


“I am appealing to beneficiaries to use the gesture judiciously,’’ Danjari said.


One of the beneficiaries, Malam Abdullahi Shehu commended the lawmaker-elect for the gesture and said the fertiliser came at the right time.


A female farmer, Hajiya Aisha Muhammad described the gesture as a good step by the lawmaker-elect to support farming in the area.

  SSANU, NASU threaten strike over withheld salaries The Joint Action Committee of the Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities and the Non-Academic Staff Union of Educational and Associated Institutions have threatened to disrupt industrial peace in universities should the government fail to release the withheld salaries of members. The salaries were seized by the administration of former President Muhammadu Buhari during their strike in 2022. The unions, in a joint letter signed on Friday by the President of SSANU, Muhammed Ibrahim and General Secretary of NASU, Peters Adeyemi, questioned the rationale with which the government released four months withheld salaries to members of the Academic Staff Union of Universities but failed to release the withheld salaries of non-academic staff. The unions noted that they would no longer be able to assure the government of industrial peace in universities should the amounts owed by the government are not released. Earlier, the uni...
