The president also reaffirmed the chamber’s commitment to advancing agricultural transformation and enhancing Nigeria’s export competitiveness.
He said that the organisers remain committed to delivering an exceptional platform that would promote agricultural mechanisation, strengthen export-quality production systems, facilitate technology transfer, and attract sustainable investments into Nigeria’s agricultural sector.
According to him, AGROMEQA EXPO 2026 remains a strategic initiative designed to support national priorities on food security, economic diversification, job creation, value addition, and export-led growth.
He said that the export would continue to serve as a premier platform for showcasing modern agricultural technologies, facilitating business-to-business engagements, promoting investment partnerships, and strengthening linkages across the agricultural value chain.
While appreciating the understanding, patience, and continued support of all stakeholders, Obegolu assured them of a highly impactful and successful event.
