The Kebbi Government has called on farmers in the state to form cooperative groups so as to benefit from the N5 billion loan secured from the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN).
Gov. Atiku Bagudu made the call on Monday during an interactive session with the members of Rice Farmers Association and community leaders in Birnin Kebbi.
Bagudu, who was represented by his Chief of Staff, Alhaji Suleiman Argungu, said that the loan was obtained to boost production of rice and wheat in the state.
