Gov. Darius Ishaku of Taraba State while commissioning a tea crusher plant in the Mambilla plateau reiterated the need to start the exportation of its produce being the only company producing tea in the entire west African region.
The Tea and Coffee grow very well in Nigeria. On the Mambilla plateau (Taraba state), the tea is one of the highest quality in the world. The temperate climate and the plateau provide good arable land for its cultivation and high yield. Some companies already exist taking advantage of these endowments. There is however abundant room for additional investors.

no we need to do more awareness for the local ones. Use india as an example. They shut their borders, grew industry nd commerce nd opened their borders. We r reaping the benefit of that move today by- brt-tata, keke marwa- bajAj, cars- hyundai, cotton dresses etc. Its jus about doing more promotion

Nigeria is just too bless with natural resources yet we seem not to know how to harness these resources. Its either we are too lazy to go about it or we seem not to be aware of the abundancy of these resources.
