Tinubu Orders BOA to Clear Agro Dealers’ Arrears with ₦30bn AfDB Support

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has ordered the Bank of Agriculture (BOA) to immediately settle all outstanding arrears owed to agro dealers and input suppliers under the National Agricultural Growth Scheme and Agro-Pocket (NAGS-AP).

The directive comes after the release of ₦30 billion from the African Development Bank (AfDB) to strengthen Nigeria’s food security programme and provide support to farmers ahead of the next planting season.
