The wife of Anambra State Governor Chief Mrs Nonye Soluso has celebrated the achievements of Nnaemeka Cyril Nduba, a local farmer from Igbariam, who showcased his gardening skills at her Christmas chicken giveaway event at Awka.
Mr. Nduba, a beneficiary of the giveaway, arrived with a massive pumpkin from his home garden, impressing Soludo with his dedication and resourcefulness. Despite limited space, he cultivates various vegetables in sacks and bags, demonstrating the potential for urban farming.
Mrs Soludo praised Nduba's hard work, promoting the "start small" ethos and urging others to follow his example. "You don’t need the whole world to begin just a willing heart, dedication, and passion," she said, vowing to support his efforts.
The gesture highlights Soludo's advocacy for urban and backyard farming as a pathway to self-reliance and community growth.
