Gov. Willie Obiano commissions the largest poultry project in south east (photos)

On the 10th of February, 2017, Gov Willie Obiano commissioned the largest poultry project in the south east. This was made known by the commissioner of economic planning and budget development, Mark okoye II on his official Facebook page he wrote: "Yesterday, Gov. Obiano commissioned the largest poultry project in south eastern Nigeria. The project is located on a 75 hectare farm in Igbariam. This was one of the first agriculture projects facilitated by Anambra State Investment Promotion & Protection Agency where I served as the pioneer Executive Director and Sec. to the Governing Council. 

The first phase of the project has the capacity to farm 350,000 birds every 6 weeks and 30,000 eggs a week. ANSG contributed land to this partnership in exchange for equity in the project while funds were provided by a consortium of investors from Anambra led by Chief Clem Nwobu. 
In 2 years, the target is to achieve self sufficiency in poultry production thereby reducing our dependence on Oyo state for eggs and frozen chicken. 

Invest in Nigeria, think Anambra! Domestic direct investment in productive sectors can get us out of this recession.
