Monguno
stated this in Ilorin in his keynote address, at the opening ceremony of a
3-day training programme, organised for the North Central geopolitical zone by
the Federal Ministry of Agriculture and
Rural Development; and Nigeria Agricultural
Quarantine Services (NAQS), in collaboration with House Committee on Agricultural Production and Services.
The
programme with the theme: Training of
Nigeria Farmers: Quarantine Perspective, held at the Intercontinental
Harmony Hotel, Ilorin, Kwara State, ended last Friday.
Represented
by Dr. Abubakar Amuda Kanike, Monguno
reminded participants that agriculture remains one of the basic employers of
labour with chains of opportunities for the teeming populace to tap from.
He
therefore urged participants to be receptive and focused, so as to be well
equipped in meeting the required standard in exportation.
In his
opening remarks, the Coordinating Director, Nigeria Agriculture Quarantine
Services (NAQS), Dr. Vincent Isegbe,
acknowledged the fact that some farmers are unable to export their produce due
to lack of knowledge of the expected requirements and standards.
Isegbe,
who was represented by Dr. Sakiru Kazeem,
pointed out that since all agricultural produce in the country cannot be meant
for consumption, the need to export and make more money arises. He explained
that farmers need to be well equipped in handling their produce for export so
that their consignments will not be rejected. This link will help farmers know
everything about export trade from packaging of agricultural products to getting

Earlier
in his welcome address, the Chairman and Group Managing Director of Degolex
Merchants Limited, Dr. Omoleye Olabode,
represented by Mr. Lanre Babalola,
assured participants that quarantine specialists were on ground to teach them
the nitty-gritty of exporting their produce, urging them to be attentive and
ask probing questions. (Guardian)
Have you heard this? Many
Nigerian exporters have been defrauded of huge amount of money in the process
of exporting commodities to foreign countries. Do you know why? They were not
trained on export operations, management, documentations and the best methods
of payment in export trade. This is terrible!!! Nigerians cannot continue to
lose money to foreigners in the course of export business. Exporters, why don’t
you get a practical manual that teaches the stages of export trade from
processing and packaging of commodities to receipt of payment by the foreign
buyers. It teaches export operations, export management, export documentations
and methods of payment in export trade? It is a contemporary step-by-step guide
to export trade. It tells all the contemporary dynamics in export trade. To get
