Ondo State government is to embark on the renovation of Central Depot Warehouse which was burnt during the ENDSARS protest in October 2020.
Commissioner for Agriculture and Forestry, Mr Olayato Aribo gave the assurance when he visited the warehouse
located at Oke Eda area of Akure, the state capital.
Mr. Aribo described the warehouse as the largest in the State and is used to store fertilizers and other agrochemicals, owned by Agric Inputs Supply Agency, a component of Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry.
He explained that all necessary materials needed for timely completion of the facility are in place and expressed satisfaction at the level of work done so far.
The Commissioner also reiterated his commitment towards improved internally generated revenue, through hard work and development of technology at control posts to monitor truck movement at the boarders, which he said would assist the government to know total numbers of trucks that made use of the state’s boarders.
He maintained that the government is proposing to review tariff paid at the control posts, because the fee is long overdue for review.
