The Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development, Mr Audu Ogbeh, has blamed the poor run of Nigeria’s economy on the Structural Adjustment Programme (SAP) introduced by former Head of State, General Ibrahim Babangida.

Mr Ogbe disclosed this during an exclusive interview with Channels Television in Otukpo, Benue State, at the flag off of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Benue South Senatorial re-run election campaign for its candidate, Mr Daniel Onjeh.

The Agric and Rural Development Minister, who blamed Nigeria’s over-reliance on crude oil, claimed that the Structural Adjustment Programme pointed Nigerians in the wrong direction.
He advised Nigerian youths to take advantage of the oil crisis in other to diversify into Agriculture and non-oil sectors.

Ogbeh also expressed concern over the high rate of unemployment among Nigerian youths with the advice that they take up opportunities being created in the agric-sector, in other to earn themselves legitimate sources of livelihood.

Blaming idiots

Mr. Audu Ogbe, I think you are pretty right & wrong @ the same time...

The issues & concerns being raised over investment prospects and viability hasn't been addressed yet...
An average Nigerian youth hoping to go a-farming is still bedevilled with unresolved questions bothering on stability, fund, strategic marketing, risk solvency, inputs, so many of them! A few have successfully beat the barricades on their way, but it's not encouraging!

So, stop the blame game & sit up...
Design feasible models to make oil marketers want to invest part of their loots on good & promising farms! In the next 5 years, we want to see multi-million naira farms owned and managed by young entrepreneurs...


It has been #Angry#Nigerian

...and I'm just here to say the #Truth

IBB is a saint -
Abacha never stole
Atiku is angel Gabriel
Fashola is a pastor
Tinubu is archbishop
Amechi is a reverend father
Obasanjo is a pope
Buhari is assistant pope


But GEJ is corrupt





When they got tired of blaming GEJ, they started blaming God, now IBB?
Oh well, At least they're back to blaming human beings

I'm tired of all dis embarrasments!
I'm tired of defending PMB/APC
I'm old enough to tell lies against my conscience!
I'm decamping!....Abeg wailers form still remain?

When a student don't know what to write, he begins to blame his lecturer and village witches for his inability to pass an exam.

Bullshit. Why are you guys now in power? If it's all blame,why didn't you stay as opposition and blame till eternity?

The blame game continues...
Am sure they will soon blame Awolowo,Nnamdi Azikiwe and Tafawa Balewa soon

One chance ghen ghen government


*modified* they once blamed God and Ibb

This present government is spoiling show for Night of a thousand laughs
Obviously, everyone is a wailer now so wailing HAILERS ,enjoy your change

Blame! Blame!! Blame!!!

We don't need all these blame games anymore.
It has helped nobody and never will.

We want action.

I am sure very soon they will start blaming the youths for not being employable, hence the reason for little or no job.

Shior!!!

Nope. Wailers form is finished

We gave the last one to my daddy in The Lord Cardinal Okogie this morning

Another reason why old people should never be elected or appointed. Bunch of old dullards. Keep apportioning blames.

Many will never read to what the minister is pointing to before nailing him down. To be sincere, it is time Nigerian deviate from over reliance on oil to other areas like agriculture and solid minerals. With the way out economy is going, it may not do us good if we couldn't reason along with the government to put things right. Though it may take time but there will be light at the end of the tunnel

The way this blaming things is going on ...one day der will blame nairaland

tis govt shud be renamed 4 years of a thousand laughs

This is ridiculous we did not vote you guys to start telling us who to blame for our predicament, we voted for you to solve the problems.
So if you cant do that it is better you resign than reminding us day in day out the cause of the problem.

I now can prove the fact beyond all doubts that to retain your portfolio in APC, you have to blame some one. The Blame has been from GEJ to God to Dasuki and Back to IBB. Very soon it will be Obasanjo and Gowon. APC shits afraid of taking responsibilities. This is mere power desperadoes without the will for leadership. #onechancegovt

No, blame God for creating an economy. for if there was no economy, there wouldnt have been a problem with it.

A change for the worse.

Who is next on the list? Maybe namadi sambo...

Blame game continues, these guys are still going to blame Lord Lugard

Why are we surprised. IBB is even small,A party that recently blamed God,who is IBB to them?

See link to where the APC national chairman openly blamed God.
