The Ekiti State Commissioner for Agriculture and Food Security, Hon. Ebenezer Boluwade, on Friday, paid an unscheduled visit to Erinfun where he inspected ongoing activities at the state’s flagship poultry project.

The commissioner, who arrived unannounced, met participants actively discharging their duties and later sighted a truck stationed to load about 2,500 mature birds in the night — a development he said underscored the steady progress being made in Ekiti’s agricultural value chain.

Boluwade commended the workers for their dedication, stressing that Governor Biodun Oyebanji’s administration would not relent in driving policies that guarantee food security, job creation and sustainable livelihoods for residents through agribusiness initiatives.

He said, “What we are seeing here tonight is proof that Governor Oyebanji’s vision for an agricultural revolution is not just a policy on paper, but a reality that is already changing lives. From food security to job creation, this project is showing that Ekiti can feed itself and also contribute to the nation’s food basket.”

The commissioner added that the Erinfun project, alongside similar interventions across the state, is a major component of Governor Oyebanji’s administration, which is determined to transform agriculture into a driver of economic growth and youth empowerment in Ekiti.
