Lawmakers of the Lagos State House of Assembly have held simultaneous stakeholders’ meetings with their constituents with renewed commitments to boost food security and sufficiency in the state.
They also called for collaboration by the stakeholders to end food insecurity.
Speaking in his Agege Constituency 1, the Speaker of the House, Rt. Hon. Mudashiru Obasa, identified food insecurity as a multi-faceted challenge requiring the efforts of the government and the people to resolve.
This year’s stakeholders’ meeting is the ninth in the series and has the theme: ‘Ensuring Food Security for Sustainable Future: Youth Participation and Home-Grown Farming’.
Obasa said the Lagos Assembly was committed to ensuring food security in line with the United Nations’ sustainable development goals of eradication of poverty.
“We at the Lagos State House of Assembly are committed to making Lagos a producing state and not just a consuming state in the agriculture value chain to tackle the present-day reality of food insufficiency.”
