President Muhammadu Buhari was in Kaduna State on Tuesday to commission the $150 million integrated feed mill, breeding farm, and hatchery called the Olam Facility. It has the capacity to produce 1.6 million chicks every week, and is said to be expected to employ 8,000 Nigerians through direct and indirect labor, and 200 veterinary doctors.
The Ghanaian President Nana Akufo-Addo was also in attendance, after he was delayed by President Buhari who wanted him to attend the event.
