These people are making palm oil.

Palm oil is important in Nigeria.

It is in foods and face and body creams.

Palm oil could give many people jobs.

In the past, Nigeria made a lot of palm oil.

But now, it buys most palm oil from other countries.

The government wants to make more palm oil in Nigeria.

The banks are helping palm oil producers.

Graham Hefer explains.

Hefer works for Okomu Oil, a big palm oil company.

But 70 percent of palm oil in Nigeria comes from small companies.

Small companies need help to make more oil.

But they aren’t getting help from the banks.

Micah Ojo is a palm oil farmer.

He tells us about the problem.

Many people don't like palm oil companies.

They cut down trees.

Some companies don’t look after their workers.

But Ojo says they give people jobs and can help local people.
