Cross-border onion trade between Nigeria and Ghana has resumed after weeks of disruption that stranded trucks and disrupted shipments. A statement from the Regional Observatory of Onion in West and Central Africa confirmed the breakthrough on Tuesday. The resumption follows negotiations between traders and authorities in both countries, easing restrictions on onion consignments.
