The Presidential Amnesty Programm, PAP, and the Niger Delta River Basin Development Authority, NDRBDA, have agreed to partner on a food security project aimed at boosting massive agricultural activities to tackle food scarcity in the region.
The food security project was initiated by NDRBDA.
The two federal agencies reached the understanding when the Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer of the NDRBDA, Prince Ebitimi Amgbare, visited the PAP Administrator, Dr Dennis Otuaro, in his office in Abuja on Monday.
Speaking during the visit, Otuaro assured Amgbare of the PAPs readiness to support the project titled, Food Security is the Real Security, saying that the Niger Delta was endowed with a fertile soil and an attractive farming climate for sustainable food production and entrepreneurship in the region.
Otuaro's comments were contained in a press release signed by his Special Assistant on Media, Mr Igoniko Oduma on Tuesday.
