Wike, who was represented by his Chief of Staff, Mr Chukwuemeka Woke, said that the 10,000 jobs would be created with the expansion of Resonpalm Oil Plantation in Ubima.

He said that his administration was partnering Siat Limited to plant new nurseries at the oil palm plantation in the extensive expansion scheme.

  1. Thank you, Mr. Wike for this progressive venture! But, I’d like to propose that you also look into investing in the development of technology in the community. So, that they both (i.e. agric & tech) can compliment each other. This is the 21st century…. never forget that!
