In a bold stride toward grassroots agricultural transformation, member representing Ifelodun Offa Oyun Federal Constituency at House of Representatives, Abuja , Hon. Tijani Ismail Kayode has again demonstrated exemplary leadership with the launch of a massive empowerment initiative for farmers in Kwara South.
Held on April 24, 2025, and executed in partnership with the Kwara Youth Organisation (KWAYORG), the program saw the distribution of critical agricultural tools and inputs—including fertilizers, power tillers, cargo tricycles, and modern spraying cans—to local farmers across the seven local governments in the senatorial district.

The initiative, strategically timed with the onset of the rainy season, is aimed at boosting food production, enhancing productivity, and supporting smallholder farmers whose livelihoods are directly tied to agriculture.
Addressing beneficiaries at the event, Hon. Tijani stated that the program goes beyond mere distribution. “This is about restoring the pride and dignity of our farmers, strengthening our food systems, and creating long-term economic opportunities for families across Kwara South,” he said.
The event drew wide participation from youth leaders, women groups, farming cooperatives, and community stakeholders, many of whom described the intervention as “unprecedented and impactful.”
Organizers noted that the gesture underscores Hon. Tijani’s deep commitment to inclusive governance and people-centered development. By partnering with KWAYORG, the program not only reached a wider demographic of rural beneficiaries but also highlighted the crucial role of youth-led organizations in community development.
Beneficiaries expressed heartfelt gratitude, affirming that the support came at a critical time and would go a long way in revitalizing farming activities in the region.
With this initiative, Hon. Tijani Ismail Kayode has once again reinforced his image as a doer—not just a talker—and as a visionary leader passionate about empowering his people through practical, sustainable action.
