Kogi State to harness economic potentials of cassava and cashew nut

A decade on, the world has largely forgotten about the Chibok girls, who were kidnapped by Nigeria's Boko Haram Islamist militants. But for victims and their families, like Solomon Maina, who is still waiting for news about his daughter, the tragedy is ongoing.

Global demand for cashew nuts is exploding. Around the world, they're eaten as snacks, dairy replacements or used in cooking. In response, Kenya has been trying to revitalise the sector in the coastal region of Kilifi that once fed thousands. But in some factories, women face dangerous working conditions.

Fuel shortages in Nigeria have raised the price of gasoline and caused huge queues in cities like the capital Abuja, in a country already grappling with high inflation and a cost of living crisis.
