Cocoa farmers urge FG to provide enabling environment for growth

The Cocoa Farmers Association of Nigeria has expressed the need for the federal government to provide enabling environment for cocoa farmers to boost their harvests.

The National President of the CFAN, Comrade Adeola Adegoke, stated this in Akure after he was reelected to lead the association for another four years.

He added that cocoa farmers across Nigeria are willing  to work with the incoming administration of Bola Tinubu in order to improve the cocoa industry in the country.

According to him, the agenda of  the group is to make Nigeria the  highest cocoa-producing country in the world and increase productivity per hectare.

He said there is the need for  social revolution in the cocoa industry  to create wealth for states  to go back to quality production of coca and mass empowerment of our farmers.
