This came as thegovernment concluded plans to construct a Metropolitan Park at Ajetutun in Ibeju-Lekki Local Government Area of the state. Commissioner for Agriculture and Cooperatives, Gbolahan Lawal, while briefing newsmen on the activities slated for this year’s World Food Day at Alausa, Ikeja, said the decision to set the 25 percent target was to ensure that the state’s teeming population does not at any time experience food scarcity.
