According to him, there is a need for stakeholders to understand the content of the hibiscus export compliance agreement reached between Nigeria and the Mexican authorities.

Earlier, the President of the Association of Hibiscus Flower Exporters of Nigeria (AHFEN), Mr Tunji Lawal, urged on the agency on the establishment of more fumigation chambers across the nation, adding that there is a strong need for it to ensure the commodity’s purity to avert rejection.

He also urged the agency to wade into the matter of hibiscus exportation to Guatemala just as it did to Mexico.
