The Governor of Ondo State, Dr Olusegun Mimiko has concluded plans to forward to the State House of Assembly for legislative assent, a bill to give the state's Cocoa Revolution Project legal backing.

This is part of the government's ongoing revolution in the agricultural sector, even as the state's legislators have registered their readiness to pass the bill as soon as it gets to the House of Assembly.

 

The bill would authorise the state Cocoa Revolution Project to the legislators thus, enabling government actualise its decision to make Cocoa farmers in the state reap the fruits of their labour.

 

Mimiko said government would not allow Cocoa farmers in the state to be ripped off any longer, adding that by the time the bill became operational, Cocoa business in the state would naturally receive a boost and farmers would be encouraged to do more.

 

He said the concept of his government to revamp Cocoa production through the Cocoa Revolution Project was a good vision that would be another landmark in boosting revenue of the state.
