The Minister of Agriculture and
Rural Development, Dr. Akinwumi Adesina has inaugurated 15 boards of
agencies and institutes under his ministry in Abuja with a charge to help the country
generate revenue internally as well as become a global player in the food export business, NaijaAgroNet reports.
Adesina said that the board should improve the
relations between the management and staff among others things within a period of nine months and commended
the various research institutes, noting that “they are all operated under very
harsh conditions, yet are doing very well.”
He said that Nigeria
can feed and sustain itself given its fertile land, labour and highly
resourceful people and stressed that agriculture had been reformed from being a
developmental activity to become a big business for all stakeholders at all
levels.
“We have decided as a country to be more cohesive
and efficient in achieving our agricultural dream of making Nigeria a food
sufficient and food exporting country,” Adesina said.
NaijaAgroNet gathered that the boards inaugurated include, the
National Root Crops Research Institute, Abia, National Lake Chad Reasearch
Institute, Maiduguri, National Institute for Fresh Water Fisheries Research,
Niger, Nigeria Institute for Oil Palm Research, Bank of Agriculture, and
National Horticultural Institute, the Nigerian Agricultural Insurance
Cooperation, National Veterinary Research Institute, Agricultural Research
Development Council, FCT, Cocoa Research Institute Of Nigeria, National Cereals
Research Institute, Ibadan and National Animal Research Institute.
Speaking on behalf of the board members, Chioma Ohakim
