Presidential Amnesty Programme is partnering with  National Board for Technology Incubation NBTI to improve quality and certification of agricultural products of its beneficiaries to boost food production.

Special Assistant on Media to the Coordinator of the program,  Murphy Ganagana, said this in a statement issued in Abuja.

According to Ganagana, this is sequel to an approval granted the Amnesty Programme by the Director-General, National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control NAFDAC Mojisola Adeyeye, to use its incubation centres.

He said 23 technology incubation centres were allocated to Amnesty programme by NBTI for cluster manufacturing by beneficiaries of the Programme, who had been trained and empowered in the agriculture  and allied sector.

He added that this partnership would be beneficial to its candidates trained on production of rice, garri, plantain-flour, plantain-chips, chin-chin, smoked fish, chicken, snail, fruit juice and cosmetics, among others.
