Oyebanji seeks federal support for livestock development

Ekiti State Governor Biodun Oyebanji called for increased federal support to develop livestock, create jobs and expand economic opportunities. He made the appeal on Tuesday while receiving Livestock Development Minister Idi Mukhtar Maiha, who commissioned a modern veterinary hospital in Ado-Ekiti and inspected projects under the LPRESS programme. Oyebanji said federal intervention was particularly needed to expand and sustain the Ikun Dairy Farm. Maiha said the federal government was ready to strengthen its partnership with Ekiti to boost production and support food security.
