| Description: |
At the Obiogba Cassava Processing Facility in Obiogba, Oriowon, Edo State, Nigeria, the process involves the mixing of palm oil with the cassava paste. This facility is overseen by incubatees who voluntarily rotate their participation, contributing one day per month under the supervision of an incubator as part of the LIFE-ND training program, which centers on cassava processing. The facility is operated by incubatees who work on a voluntary, rotational basis one day per month under the supervision of an incubator as a part of the LIFE-ND training on cassava processing. LIFE-ND aims to address the growing numbers of restive youth and lack of income-generating activities for women by developing their skills and sustainably enhancing incomes and food security, creating jobs for 25,500 rural young people and women (incubates) in the Niger Delta in southern Nigeria. In particular, LIFE-ND is changing mindsets by helping youth realize agriculture as a good business opportunity. The project will strengthen the capacity of government institutions to work with up to 600 established private-sector actors (incubators). |
