In a significant move towards promoting healthy living and sustainable agriculture, Her Excellency Mrs. Nonye Soludo, fondly referred to as Mama Anambra, launched the Healthy Living Farmers Market Initiative earlier today in Anaocha Local Government Area. The event, which drew widespread commendation, saw the distribution of seeds and a strong advocacy for greener, healthier lifestyles among the people of Anambra.
The Commissioner for Youth Development, Mr. Patrick Agha Mba, lauded Mrs. Soludo for her visionary initiative, describing it as a critical step towards fostering a healthier and more sustainable future for the state. “Her Excellency’s commitment to promoting healthy living and supporting local farmers is truly commendable. This initiative will not only improve the health of Ndi Anambra but also boost our agricultural sector,” Mr. Agha Mba stated.
During the launch, Mrs. Soludo emphasized the importance of avoiding processed foods and adopting healthier dietary habits. She also encouraged regular exercise as a key component of a functional lifestyle. “Health is the greatest wealth,” she remarked, as she personally demonstrated the planting of seeds distributed to attendees. The initiative aims to inspire residents to embrace organic farming and sustainable practices, ultimately contributing to a greener environment.
The Healthy Living Farmers Market Initiative is expected to create a ripple effect across Anambra State, encouraging more individuals to participate in local farming and prioritize their health.
