Melvin Ponsak Daji, a lawyer and founder of Peacevilla Integrated Farms Limited, has continued to apply both legal expertise and agricultural enterprise to address structural issues such as food insecurity, unemployment, and regulatory compliance in Nigeria.
Daji began his legal career in 2006, later expanding his work into agriculture with the establishment of Peacevilla Integrated Farms in 2017. His work spans two sectors—law and agriculture—with a focus on community-based development and economic empowerment.
In his legal practice, Daji has operated as a maritime lawyer and compliance expert, representing clients before government regulatory bodies. His legal work has involved mitigating corporate risks and handling regulatory compliance issues on behalf of private sector entities.
In the agricultural sector, Peacevilla Integrated Farms operates with an emphasis on youth engagement, rural development, and sustainability. The company promotes zero-waste farming and provides employment and agricultural education to young people and women in rural areas.
Daji’s initiatives have included training programs and empowerment schemes aimed at improving food production and promoting self-sufficiency in local communities.
His dual involvement in law and agriculture reflects a combined strategy to promote economic stability and address development challenges at the grassroots level.
