The Member of Parliament for Salaga-South, Hajia Zuwera Mohammed Ibrahimah, has reaffirmed her commitment to agricultural development in the constituency by distributing 650 bags of fertiliser to local farmers.

The intervention, arriving at a critical point in the farming season, is aimed at improving crop yields, strengthening food security, and empowering the hardworking men and women whose livelihoods rely on agriculture.

At a brief ceremony before the distribution, the Municipal Chief Executive,  Kassim Yazid Rabiu, representing the MP, underscored the significance of the gesture. He noted that agriculture remains the backbone of Salaga-South’s economy and stressed that empowering farmers is key to job creation, poverty reduction, and sustainable development.

He further disclosed that, in line with the MP’s instructions, the fertilisers would be distributed evenly across all six wards – Salaga, Kpembe, Makango, Kafaba, Konkomba, and Kluw (Abromase) to ensure fair and inclusive access.

The initiative has drawn praise from both beneficiaries and community members, who commended the MP’s proactive approach and transparent distribution process.

One of the beneficiaries, Mahama Musah, lauded the MP’s consistent support not only in agriculture but also in education, health, and infrastructure. He described her as a leader who understands the challenges of her constituents and takes decisive action to address them.

The fertiliser support programme forms part of Hajia Zuwera’s broader agenda to enhance agricultural productivity and position Salaga-South as a hub for quality crop production in the region.
