Excellent idea.of communities helping themselves and nature. The government NEED to support the effort of the people by making it possible to get electricity to them, those hard working people effort benefits the Benin economy.

Wonderful. It should be all African investors and entrepreneurs expanding this production to go pan-Africa and overseas. Good luck to this endeavour.

There is an interview - Ghana Ex-President and Wode Maya. President said they need to build services and perhaps work with other countries on that, with the purpose that people can use tractors, generators, all other machinery that agriculture needs, it is a special and partially subsidized form of renting, and they will also maintain the machinery for the people, because this was always the difficulty for those who come from traditional culture, to learn to repair and maintain the tractors and pumps and everything.

Making clothes, bags, hats, hair attachments and more from banana and plantain trees and rafia, is nothing new, Africans have been doing this for centuries, and colonisers looked down on it, discouraged the production, and made Africans reliant on imported clothes etc. But still they are used during traditional festivals, and nature worshippers wear them in traditional worship and practises. They are worn even today in some African countries, including Ghana, for certain traditional dances and rituals.

Don't worry, Banana Republic will be selling these fibers in their clothing for a fortune 😂. I HOPE These people have patented it.

We were doing that for centuries by using the false banana tree. The fibers can be used to make clothes and the removable flesh will be fermented into food.

This is great, but without it becoming a real business where it can be self sustaining and hire people and provide income so that they can provide for the villages and cities surrounding. It’s nothing more than a video. Where are the billionaires and millionaires to help these people have the necessary resources so that they can be self-sufficient?
