The farmers are not losing anything, the farmers have long sold their farm produce to the middle men who are just hording the foods to create artificial scarcity. Last year the farmers sold a bag of maze for 17 to 21k, only for the middle men to sale it for 43 to 50k without doing anything to improve the production. The governor knows what he is doing in my opinion

Middle men can not hoard farm products because it will spoil and lose it's usefulness.

If these Policy is implemented across the Nation, some States in Southwest (Like Lagos and Ogun) will suffer seriously.

They keep using their land to build estates for Elites to buy n occupy and leave little or non for Agricultural purposes without thinking ahead.

If the North imbibed this policy, it will not be funny for Southwesterners at all.

Farming products in the South are usually exported.... Cocoa, palm oil, tobacco, cassava, beans, eggs, chicken... e.t.c.

The south does not eat farm products from the north...

Southern Nigerians have their own indigenous foods which is different from northern Nigerians.

Certain crops can grow very well in the North but not in the south while some grow in the south but not in the North. If we are one country as they claim, there is no need for that action.

Which crops? These crops have different species and cultivars. Yes, the northern lands have fewer weeds but they are not more fertile than southern lands. Let every southern Nigerian do the needful. Half a plot of maize can feed you and your family. Plant maize. Half a plot of cassava can feed you and your family. Plant Cassava. You can plant yams and cocoyams in your garden. If your compound is big, plant vegetables and maize in your house. At least you will have something to eat. Cheers.

Th North don't hold us be the balls, as a matter of fact locally Nigeria don't have enough food or farmers to cater for the population

The pressure and demand on the North is tew much at the moment, hence why the govt have to apply a temporary solution which is to open our borders and lift ban on food item

Most of these contraband dominate our market at exorbitant prices already its not as of the Ban are effective, Govt should lift the ban and we will witness price crash

When the north produces more than enough for themselves to consume, they will be compelled to sell to South at reasonable prices (fear of waste) but when North starve themselves to meet South demand it will definitely come at high price

danilo16:
If that's the case, the South should start importing food from somewhere. This is terrorism , knowing full well that the South depends 50% on the food supply from the North, likewise the north depends on the resources from the South.

DarkJeddi:
Capping rubbish..
This is unconstitutional and you are very myopic,if you think banning the sale of farm produce is the panacea for the hunger in the land..

He used an A.i software called ChatGPT.

Catapault:
THE FUNNY THING ABOUT ALL THESE CRITICISMS OF THE GOVERNOR IS THAT IF YOU WERE A NIGER STATE INDIGENE, YOU WILL BE JUBILATING. PRAISING THE GOVERNOR for being sensitive to the plight of his people!

Kai...This world.

I don't take any of you serious, I swear.

You flow with the wind.

Anywhere belle face people.

Msheww

Niger state Farmers have to sell products to buyers if Niger state Farmers don't sell then the buyers will buy from other Farmers in other states..

which means the buyers that normally buy farm products from Niger state Farmers have found new farmers and will no longer buy from Niger state farmers which means Niger state farmers lose revenue.


From what you have said You don't know economics and you are not the one providing the food you eat..

Redman44:
The southwest states have to embrace farming on a massive scale. There is a lot of unutilized land in Lagos, Ogun, Oyo, Ondo etc. Hectares of land that can be farmed productively. We can plant Guinea Corn, Maize and Millet massively in Yoruba land. Cultivars and Species of these cereals can grow in the South-West. We should also use every available space to plant kitchen crops in the southwest. So many information online. The government should give seeds to the people and clear land for them. The people will do the rest. Cheers.

Jeje247:
I wish the southern governors are smart enough to seek sustainable alternatives before he wakes up from his drunkenness so that by that time his people will have no market to sell to. Let them be selling to mali and Burkina Faso

Slimlord:
How can you compare oil with farm produce? Is farm produce a natural resource?

You must have bribed your way through school to get a certificate because you don't know anything.

nairalanda1:
This is a populist move to prevent more protests in his state.

The guy wants to crash prices of food in his state....instead of addressing stuff like how to increase food production via large mechanized commercial farming, improving rural roads, etc etc.

The problem we have with food production in Nigeria, and why America produces more food than us , despite us having over 60% of Nigerians involved in farming compared to less than 6% for the USA...is simple. Subsistence farming can never meet food needs for a nation...it is either you do massive large scale farming, or nothing.

State governors have refused to adress this problem...instead they just keep on doing the same old thing...

Anyway, that's how we like it.

Large scale farming can only be done by billionaires or corporations or state or federal government.

U:S:A produces more because their multi-millionaires, billionaires, corporations are the ones involved in farming.

Meliforme:
This is in contention to be the dumbest post ever to hit this thread. Imagine Osimhen bowing down to things that can't help him and has never helped anyone.

Meliforme:
Rubbish.

He is not bowing down to "things".

He is bowing down to his parents, his ancestors and gaining self-control, self-consciousness and self-love.

Those "things" have helped millions of people.

Oboto700:
seun pls ban this guy.. he's not normal..pls go and say this on the street... are this inhuman? Someone is Running up And down.. giving us penalties.. linking plays.. All the goals we have scored he's involved.. he's not just lucky in this tournament..seun pls ban this guy

Oboto700:
seun pls ban this guy now.. I beg u.. no normal person would make this type of comment about osihmen.. osihmen was sick..he was on drip..he still played last night. He gave us that penalty.. And all you would say is this nonsense? You are an ungrateful fellow.. seun pls do the needful

Oboto700:
seun pls ban this people.who is nwakali that one that's always playing to show himself? mtcheww

You're not serious.

Was Osimhen sick or injured when Ghana got World Cup ticket ahead of Super Eagles.

Was Osimhen injured during the last World Cup qualifiers that ended in draw games.

Osimhen not taking advantage of the chances to kill games off is giving people high blood pressure.

BankyGee:
If it's the Osimhen I know you're talking about, either you're joking or you definitely have mental problems, and a high percentage of the reason is leaning to the side of the latter! Jeeez! 🤦🏾‍♂️

In fact, ⚡🔥 you!

Which Osimhen do you know

The Osimhen i've watched at Napoli needs only 1 chance to score a clean goal even with his offside issues...


He should better go to Edo and bow down to the Bini Goddesses and Gods..

He should be wearing a vest with the image of bini dieties to clear his lack of confidence and self belief.

I know I have seen Obafemi Martins with a pendant of Oduduwa.

Goke7:
I disagree, lest we forget it’s not long he came back from an injury and from what we currently hear he’s still nursing an injury and also the stomach issue. You can see the South Africans went for that stomach in the first few minutes yesterday to worsen the injury.

Dude is not back to full fitness but he’s the one carrying the team. I’ve listened to lots of foreign media and no one is condemning him but praising him instead for what he does for the team

SE is not scoring many goals from open play with him as the main striker and in the World Cup qualifiers this can affect the SE.

I don't want a situation like Italy had where they won the European Cup and failed to qualify for the world cup.

SE can win the AFCON and fail to qualify for the World Cup..

Hopefully the introduction of Nwabili helps the SE during the World Cup qualifiers.

The draw results are getting too much and Osimhen is not like Oshoala who would just sit on the field and asked to be subbed off because she knows there are other good players.

Osimhen usually wants to play full game.

Hopefully we see more of Moffi from now.

Oboto700:
are you mad? Who is playing anti_super eagles? This same osihmen.. Jesus

The amount of chances he has missed is too many...

In the champions league match against Inter the 1st and only successful cross to Osimhen in the dying minutes he scored it while with the SE he is missing chances he won't miss for Napoli.

The Osimhen I watch for Napoli is a finisher especially with his head the type of crosses the SE has been giving him he would score it with his eyes closed for Napoli.

I am suspicious...

Goke7:
dude is not in the best of form make we no lie but a half fit oshimen is still our best striker

He is playing anti-super eagles manner like Yakubu and Akpeyi.

It was after Akpeyi threw the ball into net I confirmed that some players stylishly sabotage the Super-Eagles or their teams.

Joezinho:
Which nwakali? lol. Nwakali has regressed a lot since the U17 days.

That boy isn’t SE material. The day iwobi gets dropped from the SE, na that day una go realize say iwobi is one of our most crucial players.

Nwakali is Iwobi Pro Max.

He can tackle, play long and short passes, he is rugged, can score from outside the box, he can defend e.t.c.

Stop disrespecting Nwakali....

forgiveness:
You didn't watch the match based on this your assertion.

I watched it.

comodo:
But moffi looks like he is heavy. Moffi I know is faster than the one I saw today. But please who sent that pass?? That was tailor made. Osimhen will be licking his lips if na him get that kind pass.

If Osimhen gets such a pass he would have been offside.

Even the 2nd cancelled goal looked partially offside.

The one he could have licked lips on his Lookman's one on one, I know Osimhen would have shot first time or moved the ball to the right or be offside.

SE needs another Striker that's fast like Osimhen.

Nathan Tella should be capped.

comodo:
I thought I was the only one that noticed that. He couldn't show his presence one bit

I didn't even really notice Aribo in the match.

It seems other people on this thread didn't notice him to since they are not talking about him. At least Chukwueze did some things.

Aribo turned to ghost.

UncleHaba22:
Sorry to say this Yusuf Passes the Ball better than Iwobi


Nobody say iwobi no dey try but due to his Experience in the SE he should be doing better than he is doing abeg

Yusuf is a DM/CM and DM's are trained to take short and accurate passes.

In this match, Iwobi was taking risky long passes instead of short passes..

And again once Aribo came on SE lost the midfield.

Setaleonoz:
Nobody is talking about how poor chukwueze was today

Sportilitica:
His decision making has been suspect for a while. I pray his milan move will help him improve because he has what he takes

comodo:
His decision making was just off chart. So poor. He has a problem with when to pass the ball and when to dribble or when to shoot at goal. I think his CNS needs some tweaking. His brain and his leg is not in tandem. Either brain was sending wrong signal or the legs were interpreting wrongly. He had opportunities of shooting at goal like 2wice.

At club level he plays well.. same thing with Moses Simon but Simon seemed to reduce his own a bit in this AFCON.

mrwilliams9:
Moffi should have played in Chukwueze quicker. He was in clear

If he had run in a straight line the defender won't have caught him.

COOL10:
I don't envy Iheanacho and Moffi at all. Na trap be this

Serious trap.

Onyedika and Moffi would have been better.

Joebie:
Give Lookman

Ekong not Lookman.

Goke7:
He's giving away balls making the SA looking better

The coach has listened to you. Iwobi is subbed off.

Zellas:
I expected at least 2 changes at this half time.
Omerou for osayi and yusuf for iwobi.
Delay in this subtitutions may see us trailing.

Removing Iwobi won't be wise.

More midfielders are needed.

Odunayaw:
A back 4 with a stationary DM will deal with those spaces.

That's the problem..

A DM is not stationary. It's a CB that's stationary.
