The CBN governor, who said the loan attracts a single digit interest rate of 9 percent, stated that Kwara State has a comparative advantage in poultry business making it necessary to support the management and owners of Valentine Farms, operators of the poultry section, whose business, he said, has provided employment for a lot of unemployed youths in the state.
