He added that 50,000 graduates of Agriculture will be employed to help train farmers in rural areas on how to use seeding and modern agricultural farming.

This,, he said, would help improve agriculture practices in Nigeria.

“The government is doing everything possible to diversify the economy through agriculture and solid mineral sourcing that would create more jobs and help the country recover from recession.

“ If this is not done and the country is allowed to go into depression, Nigerian economy may not recover from the depression.  So the federal government is doing everything in this period of recession to recover and create jobs for our unemployed youths,” the minister stated.
