Aimu Foni said the move became necessary following the successes recorded by Nigeria’s groundnuts in recent times. In his word “We have reports from Nassarawa state that Nigeria’s groundnuts exported this year were Aflatosin safe” He further appealed to the Nigerians government to always provide Aflasafe and other mechanised pieces of equipment. Responding to the delegation was the Consul-general Michael Deleen who received the group before handing them over to Nigeria’s representative on Agriculture to Netherlands Mr. Christopher Udoh for onward discussions. Mr. Udoh while responding thanked the NGROPPMAN delegation for the courtesy visit noting that Nigeria’s groundnut does not end in the Netherlands alone but goes across the European countries. Earlier he posited that the Netherlands government is open and committed in supporting agricultural programs which according him Nigeria’s groundnut will not be kept aside anymore.
