The Board held its annual agricultural exhibition yesterday, under the Agricultural Education Training Programme (AETP) at the Board’s Premises, Maryland, Ikeja 


Recall that the AETP is a Universal Basic Education Commission led programme, designed to inculcate and promote farming amongst pupils in public primary schools to foster agricultural education by teaching pupils the processes of preparing the land to harvesting and sales. At the event, various farm produce such as vegetables, Cassava flakes, cocoyam, plantain, fruits and livestock were displayed for sale and witnessed massive patronage from members of the Board and those within the immediate environment.


Hon. Wahab Alawiye-King, the Executive Chairman, LASUBEB during his tour at the expo stated that the initiative introduced by the federal government is funded through the Universal Basic Education Commission. Adding that the State government has equally been supporting the programme with funds to promote agriculture, school commerce and financial management in schools.


He noted that the gathering which had in attendance pupils and teachers of various primary schools across the state will expose the children to social interaction, team spirit, promote nationalism and also develop entrepreneurship skills in pupils.


He mentioned that basic education in the state is holistic, adding that it is not only concentrated on the cognitive domain but the affective and psychomotor aspects of teaching and learning.


While expressing his excitement on the display of farm produce, he applauded the school managers for making judicious use of the resources and also encouraged the pupils not to relent in promoting agriculture in the state.
