Oyetola's Fisheries Bill to Close Nigeria's 2MT Deficit

Governor Oyetola of Lagos seeks to close Nigeria's 2 million metric ton fish deficit by implementing policy reforms and digital systems. Collaborating with NIPSS and the World Bank, the initiative includes a new fisheries bill and aquaculture policy to reduce the country's heavy reliance on fish imports.
The plan also involves creating a blue data bank to track fish production activities. Additionally, the Green Money Project empowers youth and women in aquaculture.
Ayo Omotayo and Bethel Olujobi are key figures in this strategic effort.
