Koko Master, D’Banj, has signed a deal with Heritage Bank to initiate a programme that would focus on agriculture and agro-economic enterprise at an event held at Four Points by Sheraton Hotel, Victoria Island, Lagos.

Bayo Ogunnusi, Group Head, SME Banking, Heritage Bank, commenting during the unveiling of the project, said that Heritage Bank was pleased to partner the Koko Master for the project.

“We are pleased to collaborate with Dbanj for the Nigeria Agricultural Entrepreneur Initiative (Agropreneur). As a bank, our ideology is to create, preserve and transfer wealth across generations; this initiative falls right within our purview.”

Christened Koko Agropreneur, the project is designed to inspire youths to embrace the agricultural revolution being championed by the Minister of Agriculture, Dr. Akinwunmi Adesina, as part of the nation’s Transformation Agenda.

“It is designed to buttress the importance of small and medium enterprises as a veritable platform for future economic well-being of the country,” said Dbanj, who donated N50 million to Agropreneur after he was appointed the brand ambassador for the initiative.
