JIGAWA STATE GOVERNMENT GOES INTO PUBLIC-PRIVATE PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT WITH COMTTRAEX NIGERIA LIMITED TO TRANSFORM THE HIBISCUS VALUE CHAIN
Jigawa State Government, which is the largest producer of hibiscus flower (“zoborodo”), has signed an MOU with Comttraex Nigeria Limited to enter a PPP arrangement which will unlock the State’s hibiscus potentials by developing the value chain. Facilitated by InvestJigawa, the partnership will include establishing a cleaning and processing facility for the flower, and trading the commodity under the brand name “Comttra Jigawa”.
His Excellency Muhammad Badaru Abubakar (MON) mni., Governor of Jigawa State has been a champion for the project. Subsequent to a meeting between him and Comttraex Nigeria Limited yesterday, a progress review meeting was held with the company at InvestJigawa for the purpose of fast-tracking implementation of the project. When the project is fully implemented Jigawa State will become a hub for hibiscus production, processing and potentially export.
