On their arrival in Kambia, Mr Nanoh and the Visionary Team met with farmers at the District’s Agriculture office. In a brief meeting that lasted for just an hour, the Visionary Team was able to clearly outline their vision for Sierra Leone which is centred on creating a partnership that will create wealth and benefit communities.

Responding on behalf of the farmers, Councillor Jariatu of Rokupr expressed happiness about the plans of the Visionary Team. She stressed the significant role that women farmers have played in agriculture in the Kambia District and pledged that they will work with SLeCAD to ensure that poverty is defeated in their various communities.
