Meanwhile, cassava leaves, featured in beloved dishes like saka saka or pondu across Central Africa, are often overlooked as a nutritional powerhouse. These leaves are packed with protein, vitamins, and antioxidants, yet much of this potential goes untapped.

In many West and Central African countries like Nigeria, Ghana, Cameroon, and Liberia, starchy flours made from cassava root are staples of the daily diet. Cassava is not only resilient but also rich in fiber, copper, and magnesium—providing essential nutrients to millions.
