A new toothpick brand allegedly produced by the Akwa Ibom State government has hit the market.
The toothpick
A South-south state, Akwa Ibom has allegedly started producing
toothpicks named 'Akwa Bamboo toothpicks' with 500 sticks per pack.
The production was allegedly carried out in the course of
diversification of the economy and finding other avenues to create
employment and generate revenue for the state.
It should be noted that toothpicks have been on the importation
list of hundreds of businessmen for decades despite being blacklisted by
the Central Bank of Nigeria in seeking foreign exchange.
