The advice was contained in a message by the President of CFN, Chief Oriyomi Ayeola, to commemorate the International Day of Cooperatives. xAccording to him, the July 3, 2021 edition marks the 99th celebration by the International Cooperative Alliance (ICA) and 27th by the United Nations. “These have devastating effect on businesses, including cooperative operations and continue to impact on livelihoods and socio-economic well-being of Nigerians. The food security agenda is under serious threat as many farmers including cooperative farmers are unable to go to their farms. Many cooperative societies across the country have already keyed into the programme,” he added.
