Ooni’s Chief Press Secretary Comrade Moses Olafare, speaking at a press conference on Thursday, September 29, explained that promoting agro-processing would address the menace of poverty and staggering unemployment challenges in Nigeria.

While noting that the partnership was one of the drives of Ooni to aid Nigeria’s growth, he called for improvement of agricultural policies.
He said: “with several areas of support and budgeting from the government at all levels, and donor agencies both locally and internationally, farmers would have the chance to earn much more with a bit of extra effort.”
In order to achieve the benefits of agro-processing, it is important to improve the agricultural policy of the country. It is also vital to attract adequate budgeting, not only in the form of donations, but also regular business investments. This can be done through a proper investment policy of government.
The productive use of technologies by the grassroot youth should be maximally encouraged as this would increase the speed and quality of the process. There is still much to be done in this area.

The important thing to remember is that once grassroot farmers and their government understand the importance of agro-processing development, the entire society will start moving towards a brighter
tomorrow that is free of poverty, and of course hunger and unemployment will be drastically reduced.” Comrade Olafare said.
The Head of Osun Bureau of BOI, Emmanuel Ojowuro, said BOI would be offering loan to some of the participants who have bankable agricultural ideas.
He explained that the partnership was not only to provide fund but to also support skill development among youths in the area of agriculture.
“This is a development oriented programme for the youths. We are not to just finance but participate in the development of youths. We are partnering from the beginning to the end.
We will be financing some of the participants who have bankable ideas at 9 per cent interest rate per annum. But if an arrangement between us and the Ooni crystalises, it may not be more than five per cent per annum. We have different kind of scheme that the participants can benefit from.” Ojowuro said.
