Sokoto State Governor, Dr. Ahmed Aliyu, has called on the Nigerian Export Promotion Council (NEPC) and the National Onion Producers, Processors and Marketers Association of Nigeria (NOPPMAN) to attract investors for the establishment of an onion processing factory in the state.
The governor made this appeal during a visit from NOPPMAN members, led by Regional President Alhaji Mustapha Kadiri, and the Executive Director of NEPC, Mrs. Nonye Ayeni.
The visit was held in anticipation of the association’s upcoming international conference in Sokoto.
Governor Aliyu noted his administration’s commitment to supporting investments that will boost the local economy, particularly in agriculture, where Sokoto is a prominent producer of onions.
