*"Rep. Halims Fosters Economic Growth in Ankpa, Omala, and Olamaboro Constituency through Innovative Agricultural Training Program"*



By Husseini Abubakar

In a bold move to revolutionize agriculture and entrepreneurship, the member representing Ankpa, Omala, and Olamaboro federal constituency, Alhaji Abdullahi Ibrahim Halims Ali, has launched a comprehensive training program for his constituents. The program, which focuses on agricultural value chains and entrepreneurship skills, is part of Rep. Halims' effort to boost the local economy and empower his constituents.

According to Mr. Ohiemi Onuh Kingsley, the resource person for the agricultural value chain program, "the past, present, and future of the world is agriculture." This statement underscores the significance of agriculture in driving economic growth and development. The training program is designed to equip participants with the necessary skills and knowledge to take advantage of the opportunities in the agricultural sector.

The training program has been hailed as a clear indication of Rep. Halims' sincerity and goodwill towards his constituents' economic advancement. Alhaji Nuhu Muhammed, a Director from the Centre For Management Development, urged participants to put the training into practical use, emphasizing the importance of applying the skills and knowledge acquired.

Ms. Beauty Ngozi, the lead anchor of the liquid soap making training, emphasized the potential of liquid soap production to improve livelihoods. She encouraged participants to take the training seriously, highlighting the fact that liquid soap is a daily commodity that can be produced and supplied in commercial quantities within neighborhoods.

The training program is part of Rep. Halims' broader initiative to promote entrepreneurship and economic development in his constituency. Many people have benefited from his numerous trades, entrepreneurship skills, and capacity-building programs, which aim to boost the local economy and enhance the capacity of his constituents.

As the world's population continues to grow, with projections indicating that it will reach 8.5 billion by 2030 and 9.7 billion by 2050 [3], the importance of agriculture in meeting the world's food needs cannot be overstated. Rep. Halims' initiative is a step in the right direction, as it seeks to empower his constituents with the skills and knowledge needed to take advantage of the opportunities in the agricultural sector.

The training program has also highlighted the significance of sustainable agriculture practices in ensuring food security and promoting economic development. As noted by experts, sustainable agriculture practices are essential for maintaining the health and productivity of the land, while also ensuring the well-being of farmers and their communities.

In addition to the agricultural value chain training, the program also includes entrepreneurship skills training, which aims to equip participants with the skills and knowledge needed to start and manage their own businesses to become self-reliant. This component of the program is designed to promote entrepreneurship and economic development in the constituency.

As the program continues to empower participants with the skills and knowledge needed to succeed in agriculture and entrepreneurship, it is clear that Rep. Halims' initiative is a game-changer. By providing his constituents with the tools and resources needed to take advantage of the opportunities in the agricultural sector, Rep. Halims, who is the current Deputy Majority Leader in the House of Representatives, has taken "the bull by the horns," helping to drive economic growth and development in his constituency.

The success of the program is a testament to Rep. Halims' commitment to empowering his constituents and promoting economic development in his constituency. As the program continues to grow and expand, it is clear that it will have a lasting impact on the lives of the participants and the community as a whole.

The impact of Rep. Halims' initiative is already being felt in the community, with many participants expressing hope of an increase in their income and a improvement in their livelihoods. The program has also created a sense of hope and optimism among the participants, who are now empowered with the skills and knowledge needed to take control of their economic destiny.

As the program continues to bear fruit, it is clear that Rep. Halims' initiative will be remembered as a landmark achievement in the history of Ankpa, Omala, and Olamaboro Federal Constituency. The program is a shining example of what can be achieved when leaders are committed to empowering their people and promoting economic development.
