CBN targets $12 billion in export trade by 2024
The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) has disclosed plans to improve its agenda to diversify the nation’s economy from the oil sector to the non-oil sector, through the launch of a set of policies, noting that it targets to achieve $12 billion in export trade by 2024.
The apex bank said it was putting everything in place, including the entire chain of export, to make sure it intervenes and gives all the necessary support from the beginning to the end of export to achieve its target.
Specifically, the Principal Manager, Trade and Exchange Department, CBN, Richard Maikai, said 30 containers of cassava were recently rejected in China, which signified that our laboratories are not testing the goods properly.
