The Ogun State government says plans are underway to increase its non-oil export through partnership with the Nigerian Export Promotion Council (NEPC), in order to become Nigeria’s export hub.
The State Commissioner for Industry, Trade and Investment, KIKELOMO LONGE, disclosed this when the Head of NEPC, Abeokuta Smart Office, SAMSON IDOWU and his team paid a courtesy visit to her office at Oke-Mosan, Abeokuta.
The Commissioner said the collaboration would enable Government assist more entrepreneurs in the State to export their goods through different duty-free windows, which would in turn bring about increase in production, more job opportunities for the youths, as well as strengthen the Naira.
