President Muhammadu Buhari has appealed to Nigerians to be patient with his government as it addresses the hardship in the land.

While sending greetings across on the occasion of Eid-el-Adha, the president attributed the current challenges facing the country to COVID-19 pandemic, insecurity and flooding that hindered local production for self- sustenance.


He renewed the determination of his administration to create a just, harmonious and prosperous country in which the safety of life and property is assured.

“Apart from the destruction caused to rice farms by floods, middlemen have also taken advantage of the local rice production to exploit fellow Nigerians, thereby undermining our goal of supporting local food production at affordable prices.”


“As an elected president who enjoys the goodwill of the ordinary people that gave us their mandate, let me assure you that we are continuing with measures to bring relief to Nigerians, including making fertilizer available at affordable prices to our farmers.


“The current insecurity in the country “has produced severe and adverse effects on agriculture because farmers are prevented from accessing their farms by bandits and terrorists.

“Let me also use this opportunity to reassure Nigerians that we are taking measures to address our security challenges. We have started taking delivery of fighter aircraft and other necessary military equipment and hardware to improve the capacity of our security forces to confront terrorism and banditry,” he added.

President Buhari, while speaking on the significance of the Eid-El-Kabir celebration, appealed to Muslims “to demonstrate the good virtues of Islam through personal examples and practices.


Buhari, who extolled sacrifices of Nigerians, however, said that: “Taking advantage of the celebration to exploit fellow citizens through outrageous prices of food and rams is inconsistent with fine virtues of Islam.

“As practising believers, we shouldn’t seek obscene profits by making life difficult and miserable for others. We should not seek happiness at the expense of others. Remember that Islam is a religion of charity that urges us to love our neighbour as we love ourselves.

“I urge all Muslims to continue to live in peace and harmony with their fellow Nigerians of other faiths in the spirit of peaceful coexistence. Let us pray for the progress of Nigeria at all times. Let us expose undesirable elements among us who are creating security problems for the country

According to Buhari, “No government in our recent history has invested as heavily as we are doing to promote local production of about 20 other commodities, through the provision of loans and several other forms of support to our farmers.”

Mr man,listen to yourself fess we'll have to be patient while you address hardship not knowing that hardship was caused by insecurities because people don't have the confidence to invest and farmers can't go to the farm any longer and here you are talking about hardship as if it is an isolated issue.... Who's advising this man sef?

Good to see the mannequin is catching up with reality.

So says Nigeria's most useless president.After 6 years of being in government? Same hardship your government is foisiting on Nigerians? Anyone who listens to the endless lies & shitcrap of this unfortunate government is a compound fool.

Ok

According to Buhari, “No government in our recent history has invested as heavily as we are doing to promote local production of about 20 other commodities, through the provision of loans and several other forms of support to our farmers.”

Does this foolish president always listen to himself before talking? And the Buhari's govt went to borrow about 5 metric tonnes of grain from ECOWAS food grain?

And Nigeria today is the world's headquarters for extreme poverty courtesy of the government's cluelessness and lack of feasible economic blueprints?

What about the unrestrained menace posed by the murderous fulani herdmens terrorists that have wrecked agrarian communities thereby causing food insecurity and deteriorating widespread insecurity?

Seems like this man doesn’t realize he’s got 2 years left

How you wan manage address wetin you single handedly cause especially at the Twilight of your tenure ?

When 6yrs into your presidency the naira is over 500naira to a dollar, and when u came in it was less that 200naira to a dollar, I am dead sure before u leave in 2023 it will exchange for over 600 naira to a dollar, AND U ARE PREACHING PATIENCE HERE, abeg second base jare

These nomadic terrorist and his minions see Nigeria as a conquered geographical location. Nothing new

Patience in this context means death.

That is the message:- "Be dead while we address hardship" SMH

Buhari means thinking u re relevant when the vast majority of the country no send u again
