He requested that the Federal Government bolster the developing of cannabis in enormous amounts in Ondo, saying Indian hemp business would help support the state Internally Generated Revenue.

He said the cooperation with the NDLEA meant that Federal Government's agree to the development of the yield in the state.

He stated, "We are still at the basic phase of this issue. Before we authorize cannabis developing in this state, it needs to go through specific systems and we have started the methodology.

"The help we look for from the Federal Government is the joint effort we as of now have with the NDLEA, which is an office of the legislature.

"Since we are managing the NDLEA, we are managing the Federal Government."
