The Youths of Northeast under the auspices of Youth for national development appreciated President Muhammadu Buhari for the excellent wisdom in appointing Aliyu Abdulhameed Nigeria Incentive-Based Risk Sharing System for Agricultural Lending (NIRSAL) Managing Director (MD) / Chief Executive Officer (CEO).
In a Press Statement signed by the Adamawa Chapter chairman of the group on behalf of the zonal coordinator, Alhaji Mohammed Bappare said Aliyu’s appointment will no doubt work well in line with the vision of why NIRSAL was established.
According to him, Abdulhameed is shown to be a Man weLl fit to carry and fly high the mandate of NIRSAL as he has known to be implementing the core objectives of the country’s credit facility organizations under the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) vision.
Bappare while congratulating Aliyu for the new appointment, he said NIRSAL today in Nigeria became one of Agricultural Empowerment and other viable support towards fighting poverty and wealth Creation by extension providing jobs opportunities and employment to not less than 3.2 million people in the Northeast
“According to multiple statistical sources and analysis. So far NIRSAL management under Aliyu Abdulhameed has managed the program effectively and they are implementing the policies of Mr. President to the best of their ability devoid of any Crisis and sharp practice.
“The entire good people of the North East and indeed Nigerians are very much happy with the performance of NIRSAL, we are equally urging our people to take advantage of NIRSAL Program and participate to benefit from the program for Economic Recovery in the face of Covid19 pandemic,” Bappare said
He worried that the North East region has been in the front line of insurgency and all forms of banditry activities, with the area’s economy crippled down but NIRSAL is revamping the economy.
You would recall that NIRSAL was launched in 2011 and incorporated in 2013 by the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) as a dynamic, holistic USD500 Million public-private initiative to catalyze the flow of finance and investments into fixed agricultural value chains.
