On a motion by Bello Ka'oje (APC, Kebbi), the House of Representatives resolved to investigate the non-release from the Consolidated Revenue Fund of ₦174.25 billion received from development partners for agriculture, ₦55.3 billion from the African Development Bank for the National Agricultural Growth Scheme Agro-Pocket project and ₦118.96 billion from the Japan International Cooperation Agency for support to 550,000 smallholder farmers. The motion said the delay risked the loss of about US$200 million in results-based financing from the AfDB. The Committee on Agricultural Production and Services, headed by Ka'oje, conducted the investigation.
