Nigerian Export Promotion Council (NEPC) has sensitised cooperative societies and other groups in Kwara state to embrace non-oil export promotion such as agriculture to boost the Nigerian economy.
The executive director of NEPC, Olusegun Awolowo, in a keynote address at a stakeholders’ forum on “Developing the Nigeria Agricultural Value Chain for Export through Effective Cooperative Society Formation and Management” in Ilorin, said that dependence on oil to boost the economy was no longer viable.
Awolowo, represented by the Regional Coordinator, North Central, Mr. Samson Oluwole Monehin, said that cooperative society is a veritable tool in propagating and increasing export trade.
