Performing the ceremony at Salma Hall Magama, the member launched the distribution of two trailers of NPK Fertilizer to two thousand Five Hundred Farmers under Haske Farmers Care ,an initiative activated in 2023 where over three thousand bags of Fertilizer were distributed.
The flag-off ceremony symbolized the official commencement of the fertilizer distribution program, which is expected to benefit thousands of farmers across Toro Federal Constituency as women groups are not left out among the thousands beneficiaries.
This initiative demonstrates his dedication to empowering farmers and promoting sustainable agricultural practices towards improving the lives and well being of the people through farming as the greater percentage of the people of the Constituency involved in Agriculture.
By this development, Toro Federal is gearing up for a productive farming season with the number of groups who have benefitted from this great gesture.

We were there for the public hearing that took place at the Senate and will ensure that ,it sees the light of the day.
This initiative aligns with the honourable Member administration’s commitment to prioritizing agriculture as a key driver of economic growth and development. Alhaji Sabiyu Tilden Fulani will oversee the distribution process, ensuring its smooth execution as Chairman of the committee of Haske Farmers Care.
The member used the occasion to caution Youths not to allow themselves to be as agents of destruction, As we speak, we will debate this impending issues as your elected representatives and will forward your request to President Bola Ahmad Tinubu for quick action but Protest is never a solution.
Alot of people may think,these trailers of fertilizer been distributed today come from the Federal government, it is not. We procured it out of the urgent need to support our people to ensure bomper harvest as a remedy to poverty, hunger and unemployment.
As you can see , We have been allocated a trailer of Fertilizer by the Federal Government but ,it is yet to arrive. These two trailers cost us not less than fifty four million instead waiting for the arrival of the allocated Fertilizer which is yet to officially handed over to us.He thanked while soliciting for continuing support of the constituents in order to achieve greater heights.
