FOUNDATION TO EMPOWER 1000 KWARANS THROUGH AGRICULTURE

A Non Governmental Organzation in Kwara state, which has Education and Empowerment & Sports as its major bedrocks has launched its empowerment tagged MECHANIZED AGRICULTURAL REVOLUTION PROJECT (MARP) in Kwara State.

The project according to the president of the Foundation, Barr Titilope Akogun, a renowned young lawyer, stated that the project will be executed in Irepodun Local Government towns, specifically in 3 towns.

The Project is aimed at building and empowering new millionaires in the Local Government in less than one year.

He stated " We have decided to opt for an alternative to the conventional empowerment template of giving people clippers, N5000 and the rest, which is not sustainable at all".

"We have resolved to create a poverty eradication roadmap, towards making our people self reliant". He stated.

Beneficiaries are expected to pick up their forms at the foundation office located at Abimbola Plaza, Omu aran for FREE, and are expected to return the forms before the 1st of March, 2018 when opening of bank accounts commences.

Each farmer is to be allocated one hectare of land, upon which to farm and the Foundation shall create platforms to access loans for the farming Project.

The farming is to be a mechanized farming, as BTA Foundation shall provide the farming implements to be used from Clearing of land till harvesting.

The beauty of the Scheme is the availability of already existing buyers for the produce that will be harvested by farmers.

The farmers are expected to pay up the loan obtained with farm produce thereafter which they could sell their remaining produce as profits.

The Project is keyed into the Federal Government vision of diversifying the economy and making agriculture a sure bet.

The President of the Foundation further stated "The Project would move to 3 other local Governments in Kwara South by 2019 and 2020 respectively, but we want to use Irepodun Local Government as a template for other local governments to believe it is truly Time for BIG IDEAS,". He stated.
