"No farmer; no nation, a nation that does not care for her farmers would not survive"- Engr. Olumide Ayinla, Oyo State AFAN Chairman.

The Chairman Oyo State Association of Agricultural Farmers of Nigeria, Engineer Olumide Ayinla has implored the three tiers governments to stand up to their responsibilities in giving due encouragement to the farmers.
 This he reiterated that though the present Federal government is trying her possible best but some policies are not really favouring the farmers in the South West , hence he therefore advised the South West governors to do more in representing the farmers before the stakeholders and the governments at the three tiers well, for the benefit of the farmers.
 Meanwhile he stressed that the government should do the needful in solving the problems of farmers and the herdsmen to allow the farmers the enabling environment to farm and be able to produce abundantly for the good of the citizenry.
 Nevertheless, he bemoaned the unavailability of good roads which has been hindering the farmers from transporting their produce to the market, as at when due, and in order to avoid some of their produce from getting spoiled, especially the perishable ones, then urgent solution should be proffered to avert this problem.
