The Poultry Association of Nigeria says that the current feed challenges facing the multi-billion naira poultry industry may take almost 20 to 25 million Nigerians out of jobs, if immediate interventions were not provided.

PAN National President, Ezekiel Ibrahim, who stated this in Abuja on Saturday during the World Egg Day celebration appealed to the Federal Government to come up with policies that would assist farmers and save the industry from total collapse. The association noted that the industry employs millions of Nigerians directly and indirectly, stressing that the entire value chain of poultry crop alone takes almost 4.5 metric tons of maize and 1.5 metric tons of soya beans annually.

Ibrahim, who was represented by the Director General of the Association, Onallo Akpa, said the collapse of Nigeria’s poultry industry would create a big market for other parts of the world who are into poultry production. He said: “The poultry industry is about to collapse and if that happens, there are so many negative consequences that would affect the people.
