The Federal Government has reinstated its commitment towards reviving the Cotton, Garment and Textile industry to create more employment opportunities for Nigerians, Igbere TV reports.

This was made known in a statement released on Friday, September 20th on behalf of the Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development, Sabo Nanono, obtained by Igbere TV.

Giving the assurance, the Minister said;

“From 1985 to 1986, our textile industry was in good shape. During this period, Nigeria’s textile materials were one of the best in Africa and beyond until importation of textile into the country between 1987 to 1990, which has led us to the state we are now.

“Textile, garment and cotton industry are the core of the Agro-Allied industry. The industry is capable of employing hundreds of thousands of people across the country, especially in Kano, Kaduna, Aba, Lagos, and some other key areas.”

“In the process of reviving the textile industry, an estimate of approximately N1 trillion is projected by the Federal Government for a complete turn-around of the nation’s industry,” he added.

Moving moving stories since 2015 without any achievement and you are still saying good development for words

Nothing is going to happen

If this is a third term agenda,it is a welcome development so to say ..make our nation work again.

Whenever you hear this type of news know that a minister or govt agencies are about to steal legally. E.g. NigeriaAir

There is nothing to rejoice about in Nigeria.

They'll keep moving things till 2023.

This guys are seriously looting because the future of this country is uncertain.

We have been hearing this for years now. Daft government with no bearing or focus. The western world even takes smaller African countries more serious than this poo-country.

Instead of FG to include Ajaokuta Iron and Steel Company for us they are busy doing what I don't know.

Wait! Is it because the company is in Kogi state (Kogi Central)?

Why not in core Northern, Eastern or Western part of Nigeria?
