I hope this is not a strategy to prove to Nigerians that if some people can brag about their oil and start bombing old facilities, another region controls tomato, onions, pepper etc that other regions need.
Today, it's tomato, let wait and see what disease they will say happened to pepper and onions in a few months.

Nigerians just sitting there gawking at Spain and their tomatos, gawking at USA and their $, the rest of the world and their petrol flowing.
And they have the idea to look at Buhari and curse.
Tomato! If you cannot grow tomato for yourself and have to cry to your president to do that for you, then you have reached a terrible state of uselessness and antiproductivity.
Chai! Tomato! shocked ~If you cannot grow that for yourself in the amount of time you spend cursing Buhari and whoever else, you will never do well enough in life to see nigeria with all of it's crudeoil to provide enough petrol to all, nor electricity.

When it was just petrol, people of the world were staring at Nigeria like Nigeria is staring at Spain and their tomato excesses, and the world were wondering how Nigeria can be swimming in so much crude oil as if they are spaniards swimming in tomatoes, but nigeria cannot provide petrol to fuel vehicles. Same with common electricity.

The world now knows how useless the people of Nigeria are when they can fumble the easiest crop in the world to grow. Tomato will grow in the *gutter* with no assistance sef. Yet, Nigerians can't find enough tomatos to sell affordably.

No tomato because you won't grow/produce it yourself, no petrol because you won't refine your crudeoil yourself ,no electricity because you won't make the power plant and grid network yourself and no value in the Naira because you won't produce anything of value, even simple Tomato production sef to back the strength of the Naira.
It doesnt matter what president there is, This was Nigerias destiny because of the lack of productivity of Nigerian people.
No one was stopping you from growing tomatos in your compound or even in the gutter sef. If you are waiting for politicians to grow tomatoes for you, you will find better luck going "Yaba Left".

I found a tomato plant growing in a fracture in a cement floor outside where people had washed kitchen wares used in preparing tomatoes.
I pulled it up and seriously damaged the roots and planted it in basic soil with no fertilizer or special care other than some water for a few days. I returned weeks later from travels and the thing was big ,healthy and flowering before fruiting. Even one was geowing in the gutter and growing well.

wise words. Now everyone will start growing tomatoes. Its just like living by the sea and storing water. Nigerians took it for granted that there can never be a problem with getting tomatoes. Southerners generally left the production of domestic agricultural products for the north so most Southerners would never have thought it necessary to cultivate a tomato farm. I think a cow for example can grow in the south. But you hardly ever see a ranch down here. We are not proactive. We have no culture that makes us prevent incidents. Just like the magical steps taken by the aviation sector when planes started falling. We wait for the incident first and it's bad enough.

Honestly, I do not see any issue with planting and harvesting Tomatoes in Nigeria apart from the diseases in some part of the Northern Nigeria.

Our main issue is the insecurity of farmers and the uncontrolled encroachment and destruction of farmland by Fulani Herdsmen from Libya making most farmers to desert their farms. embarassed

I just love Nigerians and the way they love to blame everything under the sun or their woes. It is now Herdsmen from Libya. Lol.......Is tomato the only food crop grown in Nigeria? Why are other products not as scarce as that? If only you face the fact that Nigeria is a phucked up country with no planning, direction or vision, you will begin to move towards a solution. You are blaming herdsmen. Really? How about blaming;

1. The government for not providing grazing routes.

2. The lack of knowledge that hay is what normal countries use to feed their cattle. It is easy to grow and it is a wonderful cash crop.

3. The government for not providing better security for it's citizens.

4. The government for having zero plan for it's citizens.
