And it has recently become a symbol of a highly suggestive best practice. Kilishi, a spiced beef dried delicacy, is a source of economic support for many family businesses in the country. Its production, however, has proved highly problematic due to its serious <strong>environmental impact<\/strong> and poor hygienic standards. So, local authorities have undertaken an unprecedented initiative: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.worldbank.org\/en\/news\/feature\/2021\/07\/21\/have-you-heard-of-solar-powered-kilishi-a-climate-adaptation-innovation-in-nigeria\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the construction<\/a> of a <strong>solar-powered<\/strong> production plant in the village of Yaba, a settlement located in the state of Katsina, in northern Nigeria.
