The Federal Institute of Industrial Research, Oshodi ( FIIRO), says it has trained no fewer than 27 people on fish smoking technology in Ondo State.

The Acting Director General of the institute, Dr  Yemisi Asagbara disclosed this on Wednesday at a two-day training in Igbara-Oke, Ifedore Local Government Area of the state.

Asagbara said that the training was aimed at preserving fish products through value addition for higher financial returns.

She explained that the broad objective of the training was to address the problem of youth unemployment and perennial post-harvest losses in most rural communities.

Asagbara said this was by offering technology-based entrepreneurial exposure that would engender enterprise development.

According to her, FIIRO is committed to deploying its expertise to support rural industrialisation by adding value to agricultural commodities of relative economic advantage in the country’s six geo-political zones.

“FIIRO has trained more than 500,000 techno-entrepreneurs across Nigeria through its technology transfer and entrepreneurship development, with many of them setting up their own businesses and creating millions of job opportunities.”

The South-West coordinator of the institute, Mr Deji Oyediran, said that the aim of the training was to ensure that women and the youth benefited from the institute’s knowledge.

Oyediran said the knowledge would enhance their businesses and enable them become job creators.

He added that the FIIRO’s intervention would go a long way to boost the participants’ knowledge base and make them better fish producers.

According to Oyediran, FIIRO’s intervention is needed in creating more jobs so that there will be reduction in youth restiveness and crimes.

A participant, Mrs Abibat Ogunrinde, a Masters degree student of the Federal University of Technology, Akure, commended the institute for offering an in-depth and comprehensive training.

Ogunrinde said that she would go into fish smoking business after her Masters programme in a couple of months.

Another participant, Mr Oluwasegun Fagbemile, described the training as interesting and encouraging, adding that it was good for the unemployed to earn a living and become sufficiently self- reliant.

Fagbemile expressed the hope that his fish production would be able to meet international standard for exportation, after applying knowledge acquired at the training.

Published

In the bustling kitchens of homes across Nigeria, something magical is happening. Amidst the sizzle of pans and the aroma of spices, families are coming together in a celebration of love, nourishment, and togetherness. Golden Terra Soya Oil’s “Pour Pure Love” campaign has captured the hearts and taste buds of consumers nationwide.

For AlhassanSule, an engineer, watching the ad repeatedly reminds him of a time long gone, yet still etched vividly in his memory. As he watches the scene unfold on screen—a mother stirring a pot of soup, the aroma filling the kitchen—he can’t help but be transported back to his own childhood home.

Suddenly, he was a young boy again, sitting at the kitchen table, watching his mother cook with the same love and care. He could almost taste the flavors of her cooking, and feel the warmth of her embrace as she served him a bowl of steaming hot soup.

But it wasn’t just the sights and smells that brought tears to his eyes; it was the flood of emotions that accompanied them—the love, the warmth, the sense of belonging. In that moment, he realised how much those simple meals had meant to him, how they had formed the foundation of his most treasured memories.

As the ad came to an end, he finds himself smiling through his tears, grateful for the reminder of the love that had always been there, even in the simplest of moments. And as he reached for a bottle of Golden Terra Oil at the supermarket, he did so not just as a consumer, but as someone who had been touched by the power of nostalgia and the enduring bond of family.

The “Pour Pure Love” campaign emphasises the importance of creating an emotional connection with consumers by offering meaningful connections in addition to high-quality products.
