Blame the government. They keep giving bail options to yahoo boys. There should be mandatory 2 years confinement for agriculture on anyone arrested for yahoo in a government large scale farm

ing facilities.

Every week they will be sending truckloads of yahoo boys to Niger, Kogi States and far North to farm. Food go full ground and it will increase productivity.

i can't stop laughing at this your suggestion.

There is this local restaurant I used to eat any time I visit Warri. Omo, na so I enter Mama Teguolo restaurant say make I chop. The food I bought (based on low budget) cost N1500. This is the same food I used to buy by this time last year for N400. The inflation rate in Nigeria is really terrible.

For those people who like screaming, 'Plant your own food, plant your own food', I guess we should also rear our own cattle, goats, sheep, ram, chickens, etc and also refine our own crude oil, manufacture our own cars all in our backyard. We should also look for ways to generate our own electricity individually because the electricity that is given to us is costly.

It is shameful that there are Nigerian youths who still give excuses on behalf of the government. Sometimes, I wonder the essence of education to the Nigerian youth when they make cases for people whose corrupt practices have destroyed the economy and social life of the citizens.

What are you now saying? We should all wait till people start dropping to the floor out of hunger? Oops. That is happening already. Abi till we start looting food shops and trucks? Oops. E don dey happen. What milestone are you all waiting to cross exactly? When we will start eating one another ba? Why all these excuses? You that is in your compound, how many fulani herdsmen have you seen? What have you planted? When I farmed cassava and corn on about 2 empty plots surrounding my compound about 2years back in shimawa ogun state, I didn't buy garri for a year! I was even dashing out. The corn nko? How many I wan chop? I am a woman. I was working full time running my business while I did that. If I could do it, why can't others?if everyone doesn't buy garri for a few months every year, will price of garri not crash? What is wrong with you all?
I gave you practical solutions yet you keep on saying gibberish

Na ur backyard farm go feed the nation??

No matter how big your backyard farm is you will still need to get other stuffs from others now

Or what sort of brains just dey ds una head sef?😂🤔

The same government that takes over Agro Lands for building estates and sharing it among the elites, all in the name that government owns lands.

You bought land for agro business. Government comes to destroy settlement and arable lands.
Our leaders aren't progressive.
Am telling you, come to my side all the poultry farms have closed down because government took over their land and sold to estate people.

How can you plant yam and harvest immediately?
If you don't plant at all, won't you still eat?
Nobody's saying immediately you plant, it's eldorado. You still have to wait for whatever you planted to germinate and grow. And here's where staggered planting comes to play, makes it possible for you to harvest at different times.
I am glad you agree that you have to wait. The poor guy that is complaining about food prices even if he plant yam (for instance) his financial status and the current economic situation does not anyone stops him from lamenting. Let's assume we have a system where people could go and get food temporary while their situation improves. Then your idea would have been at least a great one.

My point is that planting yam does not solve their immediate problem, it may even solve it in the intermediate but not in the long run (this is story for another day).

You can plant your own food. undecided
I will never stop shouting this. Yes you can't plant everything but you can plant some. I'm currently at an agricultural conference is Scotland now and we in Africa, na mouth naim we just get. We have not even started, in fact, we are not even in the race! Na private farms dey feed nation. Everything you buy, you will see 'proudly from Scottish farms', or 'supporting Scottish businesses' stamped on them. Government will never come and farm for you. Agricultural sector is the only sector that has the capacity to drive every other sector of the economy, ignore at your own peril. All these folks building hotels and filling stations upandan, can't you set up farms? Huge mechanised farms? Family owned business that will supply big supermarkets! I see cows wey be like elephant abi hippopotamus I silent. See livestock! Whereas, Our fulani are still busy using their lean hungry cows to cause nuisance and havoc upandan. Chai, who do us? embarassed
I was actually waiting for comment like this.

So everyone should leave their jobs and businesses and start farming? Did you give them lands to farm?

How many people farm in Germany and in the US and yet they eat comfortable with food in surplus?

Stop this stupid statement of "you can plant your own food"

So we should plant rice, beans, pawpaw, orange etc in our backyards and wait for it to grow before we eat? I am very sure there's maggot on your brain 🧠

Only those who see governance from the lenses of the political scientist will understand the magnitude of rights available to the average citizen. Yet, we waste them all due to tribal and primitive appendages. Tribalism is a bigger problem than corruption in Nigeria.

We can't pray for you

We've always complained about it


What do we do about this now
What is your point exactly? People have to vent their anger in any way possible. The country is not working. I see a revolution soon!

I am very sure u are an agbadorian or one of those 'fence sitters' who always claim neutrality & emergency patriots but stylishly defend thier boss.

Anyways, since una don strangle the average Nigeria with inflation, U still wan deny them the space to complain?...let people vent, pray, talk whatever..if una do good, same people no go stingy with praises
Don't mind the individual. Obviously some grains of corn can be found in his pocket. He's an agbado sIave forming neutral. They're the ones who come on here to suggest farming whenever someone complains about the rise of food prices.

Tho the inflation is too high but I believe all three candidates said they will remove fuel subsidy except Kwankwaso. Well the plans other might have before removing fuel subsidy is what I don't know. But I believe BAT isn't there to kill Nigerians.
America, UK, Canada etc where we've been running to also started from somewhere. But my fear is after all these sufferings and things begin to take shape and after his tenure, the next President from the North shouldn't drag us back like Buhari.
you be big monkey if you believe these people are making any effort for things to take shape.

I really regret all my actions and campaigns for this man. I actually thought he would be a God-sent. He completely scammed all of us. He is becoming the worst thing that has ever happened to the ordinary and average Nigerian man. He will not escape God punishment for all the atrocities he has unleashed on the vommon man
