Hardship: Governor Namadi laments civil servants situation in Jigawa

Governor Mallam Umar Namadi of Jigawa State has lamented that the agricultural loan issued to civil servants and political appointees will relieve their burden of providing food to their families.

He said the aim is to empower civil servants to enhance food security and economic stability within the state.

According to him “These initiative is part of the administration’s broader agricultural transformation agenda”

“The programme targets rice, sorghum, millet and sesame production, providing targeted support in the form of costed input supplies and soft cash loans for farm operations.”

The initiative is designed to be a revolving loan programme implemented during all planting seasons, both rain-fed and irrigation-fed.workers.

The governor urged all the beneficiaries to take the opportunity with honesty, commitment, and patriotism and the will be paid at the end of each harvest.

It is, however, expected that the initiative will produce 20,000 tonnes of grains.

This is coming at the time most of the workers in the state are finding it difficult to survive due to the higher inflation going on in the country.

DAILY POST, however, reported that civil servants in the state appealed to the state government to reduce the working days due to the economic situation as most of them are finding it difficult to transport themselves to their places of work especially in the middle of the month.
