Anambra Lawmaker Shares Cassava Stems To His Constituency Members To Kick-start Early Farming! Pictures👇

In a bid to deliver one of the dividends of democracy to his people, an Anambra lawmaker deemed it fit and remarkable to distributes cassava stems to his constituency members.

It was gathered that Honourable Patrick Obalim-Udoba shared a truckload of cassava stems to his people recently to help them start early farming.

As expected his gesture to his community members who presumably are predominantly farmers has generated a handful of reactions on Twitter.

While some criticised the lawmaker, others believe his gesture is not exactly bad if only the stems are hybrid.

Me 🤔, Others are giving their people tractors and farming items that run into millions to do their farming, this stems could be easily be gotten from their follow farmers and they would gladly give out to who doesn't have it. Maybe they used these little

Is it specially modified stems (hybrid) for greater productivity? If yes, good. But the showmanship is still not necessary.

Giving people what belongs to them doesn't require the whole showbiz.

Let's be honest with ourselves, this isn't as bad as it seems, remember Nigerians shouldn't expect food from the north next year at the rate insurgence is playing out. If "we" don't want to starve to death next year, state governments should start looking into things like this.

From kerosine to cassava stems,I think we are making progress..Uncle @woye1 ,your people are on the news again ooooh ..

It might be a hybrid stem, desisease resistant, early maturity, enhanced yield during harvest… If it is then let's commend the honorable, but if it's the normal stem then the act is shameful..
