Governor of Lagos State, Mr Babajide Sanwo-Olu and Governor of Niger State, Hon. Mohammed Umaru Bago today signed a Memorandum of Understanding on the Produce-For-Lagos initiative.

The Produce-For-Lagos initiative is a long term strategic partnership between Niger and Lagos State(s), where Niger State will produce food items (Paddy, Tubers, Legumes, Grains etc) and Lagos State will be position itself to be a major organized market (off takers).

The Farmers in Niger State will have a ready market for their produce while Lagos State citizens can be assured availability and price stability of food items.

In the Long term, this initiative will create a ready supply of farm produce directly to the ongoing massive Lagos Food logistics in Ketu Ereyun, Epe.

  1. Bunch of corrupt idiot,
    We have seen this millions of times over the years,
    In fact, since 1969,

    But Nigerian poverty levels keep increased on a daily basis,
    And our evil leaders keep borrowing more loans from their Wsstern slave masters ๐Ÿค”๐Ÿค”๐Ÿค”.

  2. Absolute rubbish. Lagos State should working towards self sustainability in terms of agriculture. You don't need a whole lot of land to farm on an industrial scale. This is the same governor that threatened not to allow food produce leave his state. What happens when Sanwo-Olu disagrees with him, Lagos will starve.

  3. Good move. Lagos is rich enough to sponsor large scale agriculture, industries in other states. Lagos should also consider massive investments in factories, mass production of goods in south west states. Actually, Lagos should be planning projects with Ogun and Oyo states. (Tri-state alliance) Ibadan is 45 minutes to Lagos, Abeokuta is 45 minutes from Lagos
