This is good, this can help the country to grow in innovation s because AI tech is one of the fastest growing technology which can be use across all sector
How can we have access to their farm tractors; even fairly used ones at affordable prices to Nigerians. This will help us develop mechanized farming in Nigeria and indeed Africa to address food security, hunger and good nutrition which will contribute to mental and physical development.
