The discussion about food in general have become a thing of keen interest in the hearts of many food enthusiast. Abóri coined from languages of the three major ethnic groups in Nigeria was another all-encompassing platform where discussion about food, not just any food but the Nigerian food system was discussed.

Today being the first day of the summit discussion was based on ‘Our Food Identity’. The summit kicked off, with Midunu from Ghana who gave the opening address then later other panelists joined in the discuss.
