I am really impressed with what Gov. Dave is doing in Ebonyi state. The man has turned Abakaliki to a construction site.

Ebonyi, Union Dicon Sign Pact on Cassava Cultivation and Processing.

May 25, 2016 11:14:46am GMT

Ebonyi State Government has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Union Dicon Salt Plc for large scale production and processing of cassava in the state.

The ceremony which took place in Abakaliki had in attendance, the Secretary to the State Government, Prof. Benard Odoh, who signed on behalf of the state, the Commissioner for Justice and Attorney General, Chief Augustine Nwankwegu and the Managing Director of Union Dicon Salt, Mr. Chuka Mordi, who signed for his company.

The agreement to engage in cassava cultivation and processing in commercial quantity is another bold initiative by the Governor David Umahi-led government to mechanise the agricultural sector and propel the much needed economic diversification in the state.

In the terms of agreement, Ebonyi State Government will contribute 15,000 hectares of land spread across the state for the Union Dicon Salt to grow cassava and establish a factory where cassava products would be processed into raw materials for export and domestic use.

Governor Umahi, who was represented at the ceremony by Prof. Odoh, expressed optimism that the partnership would open up a new vista of opportunities for investments in the state, create jobs and bring about economic prosperity for the people.

The governor explained that the volume of raw materials from cassava from the factory would create a large market for the products and support brewery companies in brewing.

Umahi encouraged the company to hasten action and complete documentation with the state to enable it start off the agricultural project.

The Commissioner for Justice, Nwankwegu who gave an insight into the terms of the agreement, noted that apart from the 15,000 hectares of land to be provided, no financial commitment was required from the state government for the agro business.

He however explained that owners of the land would be entitled to five per cent benefit from the project yield and the state government, 10 per cent.

The commissioner was happy that the agro investment was coming at a time when the state was in the process of revolutionalizing the agricultural sector as an alternative to solving its economic problem.

The Managing Director of Dicon Salt PLC, Mr. Mordi, said his company was willing to invest in the state to take subsistence agriculture to industrial level.

According to him, Union Dicon would engage in growing of cassava in commercial quantity and process them into various products like sweeteners and industrial starch for export.

He stated that his company’s target was to contribute to the industrialisation of the state and reduce the importation of industrial starch and other products .

Mordi noted that in spite of the fact that Nigeria is one of the world’s largest producers of cassava, it still imports over 200,000 tons of industrial starch and sweeteners yearly .

The agricultural project is expected to commence within the next quarter of this year.

There is something that I have noticed from pictures from the eastern part of Nigeria, you hardly see people moving around. Where are they? The streets always look deserted?

That's right.. Just that Elechi left the roads in Ai to rot away if not, Dave would've focused on developing the rural areas and also expanding the state capital. Anyway he is almost done with the roads in the state capital so hopefully by next year, he will focus on rural areas. I was in the state last month after over 2 years away and was really happy with what I saw.
