Buhari, who was represented by the Minister of State for Industry, Trade and Investment, Mrs Mariam Katagum, said: “To this end, I want to use this opportunity to reiterate my call for Nigerians to patronise Made-in-Nigeria products and services.

“We must accept our new reality of promoting locally-made products, as it is evident that this is where our New Nigeria will be realised. That is why I have constantly emphasised that we must be a Nation where we grow what we eat and consume what we produce.
