AERE Cautions Against Abrupt Shea Nuts' Export Ban

AERE cautions against the abrupt ban on shea nuts' export by the federal government, emphasizing the need for a phased transition period. The Alliance highlights the potential risks of undermining ongoing investments and livelihoods without proper consultation.

The temporary ban on shea butter export aims to transform Nigeria into a global supplier of refined shea products, but AERE urges careful consideration to avoid negative impacts.
