Kairos Events & Entertainment wishes to announce the first ever
Agritainment Face of Agric Nigeria (FOAN) Reality Show in Nigeria.
It is a concept aimed at changing the narrative of youths in their
lackluster attitude towards agriculture.
The Face of Agric Reality TV Show 2020 is an Agritainment Show that
seeks to discover, showcase, harness and empower the youth in the
practice and business of Agriculture.
Face Of Agric Nigeria (FOAN) is an agritainment project and the first
of its kind. It is a strategic project to be used as a tool to attract
the Nigerian youths into agriculture putting in view the youths
interest in entertainment related projects. The event targets the
Nigerian youths resident in the urban centers.
Face Of Agric Nigeria (FOAN) 2020 targets the Nigerian youths aged
18-32. A total of 48 contestants are selected from the six
geo-political zones in Nigeria.
These 48 contestants would be housed in a boot camp for 90 days.
Participants would be put through the technological know-how in
various agricultural practices from ground to the final consumer and
hopefully they will become proficient.
This will proselytize business and economic opportunities, both local
and international. It will encourage community development and
cultural exchange amongst the participants. Another objective of the
project FOAN is to support the government in achieving exceptional
milestone in agriculture which would have profound effect on the
growth of the economy.
The agricultural sector is one of the most important sectors in the
economy of any Nation, it should provoke a tangible economic
development.
So many years ago Agriculture was one of the primary drivers of the
economy of this nation, the discovery of oil in the mid-fifties
gradually pushed agriculture to the back burner, attention was shifted
to crude oil as our number one source of revenue.
Mono economy would not suffice in a country with a teeming population
as Nigeria, it is therefore pertinent to shift from a single income
source to multiple income sources. This is achievable by economic
diversification.
One of the central points of action in this economic diversification
is to completely resuscitate the Agricultural sector, which in turn
will address the issue of food insecurity and to a large extent
address the issue of unemployment. This is the trajectory of the FOAN
project.
The entertainment industry is thriving in Nigeria, it has taken
thousands of youths away from the streets.
As the organizers of the Face Of Agric Nigeria project, we are going
to employ entertainment as a platform to attract optimal number of the
Nigerian youths in the urban centers to engage in agricultural
practices.
The average Nigerian youths living in the urban areas believe that
agricultural practices are meant for the rural dwellers, even those
who studied agriculture related courses in the higher institutions do
not want to practice. FOAN is designed to change this mindset.
It is not news that it has become increasingly difficult to feed the
teeming population; therefore, it is imperative that we develop our
agricultural sector, a feat that will be futile until the most potent
human capital "The Youth" is actively involved.
As the world battles the COVID-19 virus, it is only a matter of time
before we realize that we have entered a new Era and an
Agro-revolution will be required to stem the tides.
