The state team leader, Baba Mallam Wali, expressed satisfaction with the commitment of OCP/Jorf Lasfar fertiliser factory and the consultants, to partner with the state government in resuscitating the Yobe fertiliser company.

government to boost crop production to enhance food security and for

exports to improve the revenue of the state,” Goniri said.

the partnership would be beneficial to the two parties.

“The government and people of Yobe state would benefit immensely from

this partnership which would ensure food sufficiency and security.

Buni CON, to improve agriculture in Yobe state, and we are putting

everything in the right place to make this partnership succeed, and

for Yobe state government to succeed” he said.

Meanwhile, Governor Buni is expected to arrive in Morocco for
