The Edo State Governor, Mr Godwin Obaseki, has said the state will be sustained by a robust agriculture-based economy in the aftermath of the coronavirus pandemic.

The governor said this during the inspection of ongoing construction work at the Edo State College of Agriculture, Iguoriakhi campus, in Ovia South West Local Government Area.

According to him, the state government is focused on developing human capital in agriculture to groom and harness knowledge and skillset of its teeming youth population. A statement from the Edo State Government on Monday quoted him as saying, “Our focus is on creating an agriculture-based post COVID-19 economy. We can’t do that without skilled people to run the economy.”

Obaseki added that his administration was redesigning the master plan of the College of Agriculture, devoid of politics, to serve the state’s economy.All rights reserved.

Nah now day break... campaigns strategy for the next 4 years. Thunder faya your papa

Malaysia made about N6 trillion in exports from palm oil in 2018 using 6m hectares of land. Edo can use 35% of its 17,802 sqkm (over 600,000 hectares) and generate N600 billion. The effect on its local economy would be staggering.

GovernorObaseki where is gelegele seaport project?

Plans!? Abeg, what were his plans before he came into office? Only narcissistic politicians would be campaigning while in office

That was one his campaign promises.

Plans?

It's all about planing. We never heard about outright execution

That's a very welcome development

The Governor is vast and highly intellectual

What a great initiative sir!!

About time.
