Adigun noted that the Governor of Niger State, Mohammed Umaru Bago, had signed a Framework Agreement for Commodities Off-take between Niger Food Security and Logistics Company, a state-based limited liability company, and Tropical General Investments, a privately-owned company in an effort towards boosting food security and promote economic diversification in Niger State.

According to him “In the agreement, the Niger State government, the producer, shall be responsible for the cultivation, harvesting, aggregation, and sales of rice paddy, soya beans, maize, sesame seeds to the Off-taker, Tropical General Investments, who shall be responsible for the transportation, logistics, and purchase of farm produce.”

“Tropical General Investments is part of the conglomerate that includes Union Bank, Wacot Rice, Wasil and Chi groups. This transaction involves the production of 600,000 to 1million tons of food per year over the next 5 years.”
