President Muhammadu Buhari says he is disappointed in the Nigerian media for failing to highlight the progress of his administration in the agricultural sector.

Buhari said this at a dinner he hosted for young political appointees at the presidential villa, Abuja, on Wednesday.

The president said under him, agriculture had become so attractive that those who cannot get white-collar job have taken up farming and are reaping reward.

He added that his government had reduced importation of rice by 90 percent.

“I’m very disappointed with the Nigerian press. They didn’t give this government the credit of the `go back to land programme’,” he said.

“We have cut down the importation of rice by at least 90 percent… I foresaw our problem in agriculture and did the right thing and today, people are much better. In terms of unemployment, our able-bodied persons that do not have education and can’t get white-collar jobs, went back to till the land and today, none of them is regretting it.”

But reassured the youths that Nigeria has all it takes for them to live a good life.

He condemned the rush by some Nigerians, especially the youth, in search of greener pastures abroad, saying his administration is determined to transform the country.

He said: “If people don’t feel good about this country, let them go and find out what is happening elsewhere but we are going to stay here and we are going to salvage this country together.

“I have gone through a lot, I have been Governor, I was in charge of our petroleum sector for over three years, I was Head of State and now I have come without the uniform and have visited each of the 774 Local government Areas in this country.

“The intention of this administration is to do the infrastructure and give education and healthcare to our people especially the poor.”

That's the game Presidio, when you were in the streets, you rarely complimented the government of the day.

Now you have a taste of your own pill chief, enjoy it wella

My dear president it is not the media that is your problem but your aides and zombies that has been deceiving you.
Get out of ASO rock and enter Wise market alone and ask honest people what they think of your performance......
You will be shock how bad things have gone......

Organize media parley and say whatever you want to say yourself. Entitlement mentality...

Makes the two of you.

You are not disappointed 2015 when they help you to deceive Nigerian

No wonder the president's handlers dont want him to face another media chart because the damage control will be too unbearable.Buhari talks recklessly and senselessit.

Though the goverment said the achievements of the propaganda APC regime are some much that they dont need to campaign including the collapse of the Thailand Rice pyramids according to Audu Ogbeh

If really Buhari knows what kind of disappointment he have always been.You can win by propaganda but it can never rule for you.Most foolish goverment ever seen.

Mmmm

Lifeless man

The same way you are disappointed in the mass media, the masses are disappointed in you.

This govt keep making noise about going back to Agriculture. What type of agriculture are we talking about? Is it the same Subsistence farming or commercial farming?

What has the government done to improve crop yield, improve farming technology and reduced labour?

Even if everybody in Nigeria goes into Agriculture, we cannot excel EXCEPT we practice modern system of Agriculture which is based on technologies and improved crop seeds and varieties. Thanks to IITA but they are limited to specific crops

Lol...
I didn't know lifeless people had emotions talkless of feeling 'disappointed'. But Bubu you should know Nigerians are disappointed in you...
