Adamawa State Government, yesterday, promised to distribute 50 tractors to farmers in the state.

Governor Jibrilla Bindow, who gave the promise while inaugurating the Atiku Abubakar Way in Jimeta, Yola, said that the tractors were on ground, ready for distribution.

Bindow said that the gesture was to encourage agriculture, adding “I enjoined all farmers in the state to adopt a more commerce-oriented agriculture than what we have being practising in the past.

“As a responsible government, we have procured 50 tractors ready to be distributed to farmers in the state. I want to assure you that our administration will support you with more farming input and incentives as time goes on.”

On road, Bindow said that several ongoing road projects in the state would be completed before the end of the year, but warned residents against indiscriminate dumping of waste, which cause flood in most of the communities in the state.
