<p>The competition aimed to create awareness about the importance of nutrition,<br />
and promote the cultivation of edible fruit-bearing trees in schools.</p>
<p>The competition took place virtually while the finals was on the first day of the conference.</p>
<p>The debate was intense, with both teams presenting compelling arguments on the topic,<br />
&#8220;Planting Edible Fruit Bearing Trees is Better Than Planting Flowers in Schools.&#8221;</p>
<p>Aliko Dangote Foundation looks forward to continued support to Nutrition Society of Nigeria in achieving its overall goals and promoting nutrition education among school children in Nigeria.</p>
<p>Represented at the Conference by the Director, Health and Nutrition, Mr. Francis Aminu, the Managing Director of Aliko Dangote Foundation, ADF, Zouera Youssoufou, said the Foundation is<br />
is a key player in Nutrition and Development and would continue to support stakeholders in their effort to improve the Nutritional status of the Country.</p>
<p>She urged the Conference to seek solutions to closing the gaps of the nutrition workforce, network on innovative ideas and collectively chart the part towards a brighter and healthier Nutrition for Nigerians.</p>
