As part of the tour, the over 100 members of staff drawn from the NSS Headquarters and the Greater Accra Regional Office applied insecticides and fertilizers to crops on the farm.

Explaining the reason behind the NSS’ decision to revive the farm projects, Mustapha Ussif stated that “as a strategic institution, the President’s campaign is a laudable call for us to mobilize our staff and machinery into cultivating cereals and rearing livestock as part of our effort to generate funds internally, while contributing to national food security, as well as empowering the young generation with an interest in modern agriculture methods under our mandate.”
