The group coordinator, Mrs Joyce Atawodi made this call during a courtesy visit to the management of KEDA.

Atawodi affirms that, shea butter contributes immensely to the existence of the human race as its usefulness can not be over emphasized.

“The essence of our visit today is to let you know that we have been in existence since 2015. Since then, we have witnessed low productivity due to lack of recognition and financial assistance from relevant authorities, despite putting our meagre resources together to ensure continuity and gain recognition like we did in 2019 where we came 2nd runner up in Shea butter production”, she stated.
