From Umar Dankano, Yola
A legal luminary cum philanthropist,Ba rrister Ahmad Nuhu Ribadu has donated free fertilizers to over 400 farmers in Yola South and Fufore local government areas in Adamawa state.
Distributing the fertilizer on Saturday, Ribadu said that the support was aimed at boosting the production of agriculture activities so as to reduce suffering among the people in the area.
The initiative, carried out through his team under the Ribadu Media Centre (RMC), is aimed at easing the burden on farmers during a period of rising agricultural input costs.

The beneficiaries, drawn from across Yola South and Fufore, expressed their gratitude to Barrister Ribadu and his father, the National Security Adviser, Malam Nuhu Ribadu, for their continuous support to rural communities. Many farmers described the gesture as timely, coming at a moment when fertilizer prices had skyrocketed beyond the reach of average farmers.
Traditional leaders also joined in acknowledging the effort. The Hakimi of Ribadu offered special prayers for Barrister Ahmad Nuhu Ribadu, asking Almighty Allah to bless him abundantly and grant him continued success.
