索科托——尼日利亚全国洋葱生产、加工和营销协会（NOPPMAN）呼吁西非国家经济共同体（西共体）紧急介入，解决加纳科托库市场（Kotoku Market）持续限制尼日利亚和尼日尔洋葱卡车通行的问题。\n\nNOPPMAN全国会长Aliyu Isah Maitasamu在索科托举行的新闻发布会上表示，漫长的延误正给出口商和运输商造成巨大的财务损失，并导致极易腐烂的洋葱面临变质风险。\n\n他表示，NOPPMAN承认并赞赏尼日利亚和加纳两国政府为解决此事所做出的努力。他特别赞扬了尼日利亚工业、贸易和投资部长，加纳贸易、农业综合企业和工业副部长，以及介入此次争端的外交官和其他利益相关者。\n\n然而，Maitasamu指出，尽管此前进行了干预并达成了决议，但尼日利亚的洋葱卡车在科托库市场卸载货物时仍然面临限制。\n\n他解释说，这些延误不仅伤害了商人，还威胁到这两个西非国家之间跨境食品供应链的稳定。\n\nNOPPMAN会长强调，该协会的关切并非针对加纳人民或商人。他指出，尼日利亚和加纳之间建立在相互贸易和合作基础上的经济、外交和民间关系源远流长。\n\n他说：“我们关切的是市场参与者对合法跨境贸易单方面施加限制，特别是当这些限制与相关利益相关者先前商定的安排不一致时。”

原文原文 / Original Text

Sokoto — The National Onion Producers, Processors and Marketers Association of Nigeria (NOPPMAN), has called on ECOWAS to urgently intervene in the continued restriction of Nigerian and Nigerien onion trucks at Kotoku Market in Ghana.

In a press conference in Sokoto, the National President, Aliyu Isah Maitasamu said the protracted delays were inflicting huge financial losses on exporters and transporters while exposing highly perishable onions to deterioration.

He said NOPPMAN acknowledged and appreciated the efforts of the Governments of Nigeria and Ghana to resolve the matter. It specifically commended the Honourable Minister of Industry, Trade and Investment of Nigeria and the Deputy Minister of Trade, Agribusiness and Industry of Ghana, as well as diplomats and other stakeholders who have waded into the dispute.

However, Maitasamu stated that despite previous interventions and resolutions reached, Nigerian onion trucks continue to face restrictions in offloading their consignments at Kotoku Market.

He explained that the delays are not only hurting traders but also threatening the stability of cross-border food supply chains between the two West African countries.

The NOPPMAN President stressed that the association's concern is not with the people or traders of Ghana. He noted that Nigeria and Ghana have longstanding economic, diplomatic and people-to-people relations built on mutual trade and cooperation.

"Our concern is with the unilateral imposition of restrictions on legitimate cross-border trade by market actors, particularly where such restrictions are inconsistent with arrangements previously agreed by relevant stakeholders," he said.
