What has he accomplished in his role? I'm just asking please
ReplyDeleteMack, Google it. President Jonathan has completely transformed the agricultural sector and this man champions the reforms that have seen the creation of over one million new jobs and more.
ReplyDeleteMay, thanks for the information. That clears things up. I will Google it though I must admit I don't trust news reports cos I see them as propaganda, especially as a Nigerian living abroad. Since you say there are real reforms in the sector, I will take your word/Google's word for it@
