He stated this in Bauchi on Tuesday while speaking at the second town hall meeting with stakeholders of the federal government’s Anchor Borrowers Scheme‎.
He added that the state’s continued support for the scheme is to ensure its success in the state, adding that distribution of farm inputs to validated farmers‎ began in Bauchi State even before the disbursement of the loan.
