Ooni of Ife tours farms in Ekiti
The Ooni of Ife, Adeyeye Ogunwusi, has commended Agbeyewa Farms for spearheading what he described as a revolutionary transformation of Ekiti North into a thriving hub for cassava cultivation.
During his visit to the mechanized farm recently, the Ooni lauded the bold vision of converting over 20,000 hectares of land into cassava plantations, a move poised to redefine Nigeria’s agricultural landscape.
“The initiative by Agbeyewa Farms is not just about farming—it is about rewriting the narrative of a community previously defined by fear and insecurity.
“By turning what was once a ‘kidnappers axis’ into a land of opportunity, the project aims to bolster food security, attract foreign investment, and generate countless job opportunities for local residents,” the monarch said.
