Oil Or Food?

NIGER DELTA WAR

Why can’t we as a nation go back to agriculture?  What happened to operation green nation and feed the people slogan?  Back in the days before we focus most of our resources and attention to oil, Nigeria was known for its agriculture resources.

We have cocoa, cassava, yam, rice and starch.  Everyone and nation needs food and water to survive.  Should Nigeria as a nation go back to its root feeding the nation and the rest of the world?  Or we should continue to kill one another over oil?

Awolowo was promoting mass education for everyone.  Nigerians used to get scholarship to travel overseas for education and they gladly returned home to put their education to good use.
