She said the products which are in various quantities are now on the market where consumers can get them at affordable prices.

Madam Ajata Abutu called on non-governmental organizations and buyers of Shea butter to also patronize their products. She said one can get their products from the cooperatives centres and at the Bole Hippo centre.

Madam Ajata Abutu said COVID-19 has slowed down the business structure of production and the market system which has reduced demand causing excess supply.

Also speaking in the studios of Bole based Nkilgi Fm was the Chief Executive officer of Pure Trust Social Investors Foundation Mr. Habib Haruna who thanked the cooperatives for making it possible for the training and also the Bolewura, the District Assembly, and the community chiefs that contributed to the establishment of the centres at the various communities.

According to Mr Habibu, other beneficial projects will be coming to the Bole district to facilitate easy livelihoods such as poultry farm and farming enhancement projects which will involve men and women.
