Africa-Press – Angola. The Deputy Governor of Zaire for the Political, Social and Economic Sector, Afonso Nzolameso, appealed yesterday in Mbanza Kongo that the economic and financial situation the country is facing requires everyone to renew their commitment to diversifying the economy and increasing local food production, as a way of reducing dependence on oil. Afonso Nzolameso made this appeal at the opening of the workshop on the public consultation held within the scope of the Preparation of National Strategies for the Reconversion of Agri-Food Systems for the period 2026-2035.
The governor recalled that the President of the Republic has made efforts to identify and develop alternative sources that guarantee sustainability and inclusive economic growth for the country.
For Nzolameso, cooperatives and agricultural entrepreneurs must adhere to the financing and support programs that the Executive has been making available as a way of increasing production levels, with a view to guaranteeing food security within families.
“The agri-food sector is considered strategic for combating hunger, creating jobs, reducing poverty and guaranteeing food and nutritional security for Angolans,” he said.
