Speaker of the House of Representatives, Hon. Tajudeen Abbas, said the strengthening of agricultural research centres would unlock new insights in crop production, pest control, and climate-smart agriculture. Abbas stated this yesterday in Abuja at a one-day public hearing of the House Committee on Agricultural Colleges and Institutions.
He said the gathering came at a critical juncture, when Nigeria must decisively pivot towards sustainable solutions for national development, especially in the agricultural sector.
He also stated that the 11 legislative proposals currently under the scrutiny of the committee reflected a clear indication that the 10th House was resolute in its drive to actualise meaningful governance through responsive and visionary legislation.
