Osun To Boost Cocoa Production To Drive Economic Diversification – Adeleke
Governor Ademola Adeleke of Osun has said the state was resolved to contribute significantly to Nigeria’s economic diversification by boosting cocoa production and export.
A statement by Malam Olawale Rasheed, the governor’s spokesman, and made available to newsmen on Wednesday in Osogbo, quotes Adeleke as saying this at the official unveiling of Gureje IV Chocolate in the United Kingdom.
Recall that Gureje IV chocolate is derived from cocoa produced in Eti-Oni in Osun state.
Adeleke also highlighted a comprehensive detail of his administration’s strategy to revive the cocoa sector, which it started by the inauguration of the Osun Cocoa Revival Agenda in January.
