The Women Advancement Network (WOFAN), a non-profit organisation dedicated to empowering smallholder farmers, particularly women and youth, recognised women in agriculture’s unique challenges.

The governor, represented by the Commissioner for Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs, reiterated his government’s prioritisation of the development and progress of the teeming youths.
