What is stupid about his comment.
If u are into Agric u will reason along the same line.
What assistance will phone provide in farming? If we must use app for Agric, should sharing phone be an option against subsidy on farm implements.
This govt has no think tank at all. We shall be planting rice on the Internet. Shameless program.

if they had increased data tariff, would the Government have subscribed for them too? or would you give them smart phones with agric app when they can't afford data

same way gej subsidize fertilizer that till now nigeria can boast of being self sufficient in any food produce. Abegi cut the crap


You go ask farmers how fertilizer was accessible and subsidized during Jonathan's tenure. Can you compare the price of fertilizer then and now stop being biased and talk with facts.

Yup you're right. This is just a means to add funds to someone's portfolio and further milk the economy. How many of these farmers can read and write not to talk of exposing them to some futuristic apps they probably would never use? Expose them to their basic needs like fertilizers and improve from there.
Nice one!

Your lord and saviour the clueless drunk from Otuoke was there for 6 years, common one bag of rice, the whole Nigeria could not produce. Yet the fraud ex-Minister for Agriculture Mr Akunwunmi kept rolling out figures and statistics that did not turn to even one bag of rice. The people's general have taken over, several states are harvesting millions of tones of rice from Jigawa to Kebbi, from Sokoto to Ebonyi, from Rivers to Kaduna, even Ebonyi has banned sales of foreign rice, yet you nonentities are wailing and weeping over spilt milk

Waste of money by clueless id*iots! Who told these f*ools that farmers don't have smartphones? Almost all adults in Nigeria have it and also access to the internet!

They should have given the farmers the web link to the app to download, and used the money for the needless phones to buying and distributing bags of fertilizer to the farmers!

Nigerians in power positions are embarrassingly incompetent and clueless, except for massive corrupt! That's why the country is a complete mess!

Guy, i haven't seen you for long? so which language would the application speak, nupe,gbagi,anambra igbo,ebonyi igbo,tiv,Hausa, ombaste? why I'm asking is because 99.99% of the rice farmers in Niger state can't probably read and write talkless of operating a smart phone, they have never complained about lack of a smart phone rather fertilizers is their biggest problem. and how come almost all the states are in the north, i thought they claimed anambra would soon harvest more than 2 million metric tongue of rice? sai baba.
