All these NGO self... undecided, instead of creating enabling environment that will make everyone work n earn to live, they would be cooking up and down. Would the food be available everyday of their life? undecided

Why don't we imbibe the good way that every individual will appreciate? Why do we like to encourage stomach infrastructure? For how long will you feed people.

Teach them how to plant and produce food. Rent out tractors and farming machinery out at subsidized rate. Eating is not our problem. Don't humiliate us in this country. We are not as worst as this.

Youths going into farming are not reverting their acrion. Why can't you get them cheap lands, storage facilities for the farm produce?

Since I was young, our agric teacher taught me the major problem of agriculture in Nigeria. Till date we have never seen changes. Lack of storage facilities, lack of accessible road, etc. Your organisation could have taken one of this problem and proved solutions rather than pouring cups of water inside an ocean.

We like eye service in this part of the world. Lay down a good legacy and your name would remain. Your food program will die and your name will never ring bell.

When you empower youths, the beneficiaries will be the one to talk good about you. Now it is in your court to now decide if you still want to go ahead with your food infrastructure program.

Thanks

It is easy to say teach them to fish. How long do you think the training would last when the students don't have food to eat? There are over 2000 food banks in the UK alone. That's a population of roughly 70 million people. We are almost 200 million. Even people with jobs in UK use food banks because by the time you pay rent and taxes you might not have money for food.

Hunger is different from poverty. The need to survive can make even the most honest man do crazy things.

A food bank goes beyond giving out food items. They also do training and some of them have micro-credit schemes to help people get back on their feet.

I have seen food poor families. It is never a pleasant experience to see children almost deformed by hunger. This man should be encouraged.

God willing I will start my own food bank soon.

We all know where they are driving at. Election is around the corner. Take the bull by the horn. Bring up good initiative. Not food infrastructure.

Take your succor to IDP camps.

You should understand me please... We have the elderly ones, handicapped one that will benefit from the free food. I am not saying young individuals should be fed but when one has no where to turn to, no food on the table, there should be a good kitchen that offers free food. Too bad our country always abuses opportunities. Developed countries have these free food centers, they even pay unemployed citizens!

When you do the right empowerment of youth by teaching how to farm and produce food, food would be cheap and available to all.

Let us solve the actual problem and not merigoround

Innovative way of feeding the poor* Get a suitable large place for them with chairs,everybody seated and their tokens given to them neatly packed and with prayers and thanks,everybody goes home happy.
Do not dehumanize them by telling them to line up in the public,u under the sun or in full glare of people that will mock them.Pls,stomach infrastructural governors should take note and fear almighty God.If you dehumanize the poor,remember that karma is a boomerang.


There are places called FOOD BANK in Canada and US where people line up in a long queue to get there portion every thuesday.

We Nigerians always try hard to look for dirts inside EVA water. grin

Have you heard of the World Food Program? I'm sure you're ignorant of it and that's why you're coming here to disgrace yourself.

FYI, there are tons of charities that distribute food to the destitute and hungry.

Food is very important. For instance, if you were properly fed, blood would pump into your brain and you won't be typing nonsense as if Yusuf Buhari's bike landed on your head.
giving them food always will not bring an end to their poverty, you need to empower them

There are several Youth empowerment programs going on, some are govt owned and some are supported by NGOs/Philanthropists. A lot of youths have taken advantage of the opportunities but are unable to apply some of the skills they were taught because the environment is not enabling. It's easy to say 'teach a man to fish' but what if the skill I can teach you is of no interest to you? or if you can't finance or sustain it?

If every one of us tries to feed at least one hungry persons out there don't you think there will only be a very insignificant number of hungry people left? As a matter of fact, a hungry person cannot learn a skill. A hungry person is prone to the thoughts of attempting suicide, theft and other vices.
