Our focus now is Medical Marijuana
cultivation in controlled plantations under the full supervision of the @ndlea_nigeria.
I strongly implore the FG to take this seriously as it is a thriving industry
that will create 1000’s of Jobs for our youth & spur Economic
Diversification.
We all know that Ondo State is the hot bed of
cannabis cultivation in Nigeria. We know how to grow it and it thrives well in
the Sunshine State. With an estimated value of $145 Billion in 2025, we would
be shortchanging ourselves if we failed t tap into the Legal Marijuana Market
