Kogi State Governor Yahaya Bello has been hailed for settling the over N55 million FADAMA owed by the last administration of Governor Idris Wada.
Coordinator of the Kogi State Project (SPC), Mr. Paul Ogunmola, gave the praise at the opening of a two-day media visit to the FADAMA III Additional Financing (AF) sub-project sites. He explained that Bello also settled the 2016 counterpart funding, which qualified Kogi for the final slate, before any possible review and extension of the programme by the World Bank.
โWe appreciate Governor Yahaya Bello for paying the backlog of counterpart funding, which was last paid in 2014, and has continued to do so with over N55 million yearly,โ Ogunmola noted.
