The Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC) is set to mount a world class agric investment summit. The upcoming summit is expected to open financing windows up to $5bn to help begin an agric revolution.
This is said to be part of a food security project by the interventionist Commission which is said to have moved from transaction management system to transformation.
The agric revolution backed by the Federal Government is expected to bring food back to the region.
For long, the Niger Delta region has been turned into consumer zone in food and manufactured goods. The region which was known to produce and supply fish, garri, palm oil, etc, to the rest of Nigeria has been pushed into a consumer region and importer of items.
