Ongoing agro-business scheme being run by the Lagos State government in Kebbi State will soon put an end to the high cost of foodstuff in the South-western part of the country, chairman of Alimosho Local Council, Mr. Ganiyu Quadri, disclosed this on Tuesday.

Specifically, the council boss said the price of a bag of rice, which is currently at N18, 500, would drop sharply to N9000 before the end of the year.

Quadri gave the assurance while receiving in audience, a delegation of Rotary Club of Akowonjo 9110, led by its District-Governor, Rotarian Patrick Ikheloa, and President, Rotarian Shola Abidakun.

According to the council boss, the All Progressives Congress administration in Lagos had swung head-long into agro-business with a view to ensuring food security for its teeming population.

“By the end of this year, or the first quarter of next year, things will immediately change in Lagos. Already, we are into agro-business in Kebbi State. We have massive land on which we planted various grains, among which is rice, our people’s staple food. And it is expected that the truckloads of rice will storm Lagos very soon.

Buhari promised to tackle 3 things and in this order:
1) security
2) corruption and
3) Economy/unemployment.

Boko haram (security) is decimated as a fighting force, Nigeria army is re-positioned, re-tooled and re-energised, so I can say 70% for now. If we can bring some barbaric herdsmen/fanatical Islamist criminals to justice and revamp Nigeria Police Force he will get full marks.

The fight against corruption is well and truly on with over N100b recovered, billions of dollars in forfeiture while legal recovery processes are concluded, loopholes tightened (subsidy, TSA, ghost workers etc) and legislative/judicial processes enhanced (administration of criminal justice act, inter agency collaboration etc). So here again I give 80% since our hero did almost nothing in this regard.

On economy there is a lot to be done but I am very happy with the steps being taken under the ruinious circumstances he inherited, in addition to the global economic slowdown due to low oil prices (and renegade ND criminals recently linked to uncle IB) which have seriously impacted govt revenues and developmental agenda. So I will score him an strong 60% for effort and strategic direction.

BeeBeeOoh:
Let me answer this your epistle with this adage:

No Matter How Hard You Shake The Pen1s After Urination, The Last Drop Of Urine Belongs To The Boxers

No matter how long your epistle is, Buhari's ineptitude, incompetence & ineffectiveness is audible to the deaf & visible to the blind. #shalom

BeeBeeOoh:

DelGardo:


Well... your response is typical of your kind. You ask a question, I respond with facts and you come back with some rant about your willy and end with some big empty words.

How quaint.
