The Lagos State Government, led by Governor Babajide Olusola Sanwo-Olu, has reiterated its commitment to replacing the aging farming population with young, modern farming technique-trained individuals. This initiative aims to boost food production, create jobs, and ensure sustainable livelihoods.
In a significant step towards achieving this goal, the Lagos Agripreneurship Programme (LAP 20) recently graduated its students after a month-long intensive training. The graduates, now equipped with cutting-edge agricultural skills, have pledged to contribute their expertise towards ensuring a food-secure Lagos.
At the graduation ceremony, the participants expressed their willingness to play a crucial role in revolutionizing the agricultural sector in Lagos State. The LAP 20 program is a testament to the government’s dedication to empowering youth in agriculture, aligning with the vision of #AGreaterLagosRising.
By investing in the next generation of farmers, the Lagos State Government is poised to transform the agricultural landscape, drive economic growth, and ensure a sustainable food supply for its citizens.
