Some queen mothers engaged in agriculture have received day-old chicks as part of the government’s Nkoko Nkitinkititi project during the 8th edition of the Royals Gathering.
The event also honoured several queen mothers for their outstanding contributions to the agricultural sector.
Zanetor Agyeman-Rawlings, who led the initiative, provided beneficiaries not only with day-old chicks but also a comprehensive support package to aid their poultry farming activities.
Speaking at the event, she explained that the gesture fulfilled a promise made during the previous edition of the gathering to support queen mothers with poultry resources under the Nkoko Nkitinkititi project.
According to her, beneficiaries were also given feeds, vaccines, and feeding trays to ensure they have everything needed to start and sustain their poultry ventures successfully.
She noted that the goal of the initiative is to empower women in agriculture, particularly queen mothers, by equipping them with the necessary tools to expand their economic activities and contribute to food production.
The Royals Gathering, now in its 8th edition, continues to serve as a platform to recognise and support the role of traditional female leaders in community development and agriculture.
