A leading governorship aspirant under the platform of All Progressives Congress (APC), in Ondo state, Mr Wale Akinterinwa, has promised to address the issue of food crisis and youth joblessness in the state.
Akinterinwa gave the promise while speaking during an interactive session with the Association of Retired Permanent Secretaries, Retired Senior Civil Servants, Ondo state chapter in Akure, the state capital.
According to him ”one of my intentions to run is to focus more on agriculture in order to address the issue of food crisis in the state.
“My focus will be slightly different from other aspirants, I will really focus more on agriculture, the truth is that today we are all hungry, we have the land mass, and we are naturally farmers in our different communities.
“We are going to be very intentional about agriculture, it’s not going to be business as usual, the intervention funds that we can access in the area of agriculture is huge and we are going to be very radical about it.
