FG, IFAD commend Benue govt. for supporting chain development scheme
Federal Ministry of Agriculture and
Rural Development and International Food for Agricultural Development
(IFAD) have commended the Benue Government for its cooperation during
the execution of Value Chain Development Programme (VCDP).
The agencies made the commendation in a
letter to Gov. Samuel Ortom and the Commissioner for Agriculture and
Natural Resources; signed by VCDP National Coordinator, Dr Ameh
Onoja, and made available to News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Thursday
in Makurdi.
In the letter, Onoja attributed the
success of the programme in Benue to the support and cooperation of
the state government.
Onoja said that the decision to
formally appreciate the state was reached at the fourth joint meeting
of FG/IFAD Mission in the state.
He attributed the feats recorded by
VCDP in the state to the consistent and active participation of the
state government in all the field activities of the mission.
“It was clear that the state
encouraged VCDP and that cordial relations existed between the two
agencies and the state government,’’ he said.
Onoja said that he was optimistic that
the robust relationship would be sustained throughout the lifespan of
the programme for the overall benefit of farmers, producers,
processors and marketers.
