Thank God that Akpabio has seen the misery Nigerians are faced with.
A nation where the ordinary citizens are left to suffer is a nation of wicked leaders

May have travelled home for the Yuletide and was invaded by hordes of hungry peons. Long way away from his cocoon of opulence in Abuja.

One of nigeria senator said on a TV station that Nigerians are complaining that cost of food is very low. I laff in Greece 🇬🇷, most fathers in this 10th assembly aren't seriously serious.

AlphaTaikun:
Lagos State has been very slow in launching the Central Epe Agro Food Hub which the FIRST EVER female Lagos State Commissioner of Agriculture and Food Systems said would be ready by May 2025 with the launch of Phase 1 of that project with the aim of crashing the price of food in Lagos State to 50% of the current prices by cutting off the greedy middle men who like to hoard food items to create artificial scarcity. Already, Lagos State has launched 150 CNG-fueled 40 ft haulage trucks for that project as of late 2025.

The key to winning re-election for APC at all levels is to crash the cost of living for these folks on the street level. They have to have a sense of urgency and that's how they can easily win elections WITHOUT any rigging or accusations from any opposition parties. Period.

There is NO sustainable alternative to a well run economy. And economy that aggressively lowers testosterone inflation and expands monetary supply via productivity.

All.these schemes are just political tools to capturing hearts and minds. They cannot last because th economics underpinning them are just not sound.

Citizens should INSIST that the government lowers inflation with a target of single digits within the tenure if the administration and this can only happen if government redirects and optimizes it's spending towards factors that inflate the economy.

Calling for national action by the nation's no 3,is 2026 layer of confusion,and from sabbatical senators with awful and shock filled debates with co debators speaking with double standards.

You figure it out.

Omalicious1:
So between Akpabio and Osho, who is telling the truth?

AMI3:
Forget election time thing. Akpabio is one man that is well respected in his constituency.
His second term is intact.

He doesn't need to campaign much to win the election in his constituency.

The only thing that can affect him is his senate president seat.

He mustn't necessarily be campaigning for himself, you know?

He can use be using such emotional strategic statements to campaign for his party in general

When some voters who cannot clearly think for themselves hear such statements, they'll be like, at least, the man is being truthful...

But that's bullshit_

I thought the fool oshomole or whatever his name is said food is too cheap. What a buffoon

lol
Na when food prices are going down that Mr Akpabio come see road.
Mr Akpabio,bag of rice was over #100,000 after subsidy removal,it is now 48k- 55k.
Derica of beans that was #2,400 is now #600 only and on and ion...

Oga, don't you buy food to eat. Didn't you notice the sudden crash in price of goods and for the first time in years instead of rice and commodities to go up, it can down instead. Man is talking about the 35m that are predicted to remain in poverty and you are saying another thing. You self, talk , was food cheap during the December/early January. My wife bought a whole basket 🧺 of tomatoes 7k and if you see 5k pepper and other foodstuffs, you will know foodstuffs prices came down drastically

frog12:
but oshiomhole say prices don go down

Elections don near, them dey form 'care'

Who woke Akpabio up?

Breaker001:
Very soon, Akpabio's media aide will come back to issue a press statement that Akpabio's hunger statement was taken out of context. Just wait and see. 😎

..they will even say it was an AI video.. that the video was fake

Ironfaceman:
Shame on oshiomole the crooked dimwit. Oshiomole had fooled the gullible with his testimony of lowering food prices.

Like Akpabio said Nigeria have adapted to hardship.

If you ask a Nigerian why are you eating shit?
He will reply shit is just protein.

Oshiomhole will be looking stewp1d as we speak a fellow secx addict is now contradicting the idiat

Cutezt:
If Akpabio fit complain, then what's the hope of the common man?

..and thank God this complain is coming from a strong APC member.. akpabio...he has really seen that Nigerians are suffering and in hunger..but Tinubu will say the economy is good, inflation rate and hunger has reduced

Thank God that this complain is coming from a strong APC member.. akpabio...not like Tinubu and other APC members deceiving Nigerians that the economy is good, inflation rate has reduced, prices of foodstuffs has reduced and hunger has reduced

Lamasta:
Na now day break Akpabio

.his conscience has been blaming him for him to be start to be saying the truth.. and not to be following Tinubu and other APC members to be lieing and deceiving Nigerians that the economy is good and prices of foodstuffs has reduced and no hunger in Nigeria

Reference:
May have travelled home for the Yuletide and was invaded by hordes of hungry peons. Long way away from his cocoon of opulence in Abuja.

.. that is why politicians in power should be traveling to their home, villages, communities and see what their people are facing..the hardship, hunger..let them enter the markets and check the prices of foodstuffs if the foodstuffs prices has really reduced..not to be staying in Abuja and enjoying life and travel abroad with their private jets and tour foreign countries

I am shocked he said this. For the first time ,he didn't make fun out of a serious issue. He sounds like he care. Father we pray they walk the talk 🙏🏾.

As in real comedy in the chambers

Let reality be the Judge

What do you call a situation where the people with the power to make the needed change are they ones rather complaining to the people they are meant to represent?

You too sabi

MaziObinnaokija:
Drivers ;transpoter§,bandits are behind this skyrocketing price

Skyrocketing prices kwa? Na same una talk say food prices dey mellow down, now una done make U-turn. To live like una is one of the hardest lives to live.

Yarimo, helinues salewa97.


Y'all said food prices are down.... Which is which? Or y'all will argue Akpabio is using irony in this statement?

. Thank God the two ate from the same party. If not people would've believed that corrupt midget.

hush15:

Has Akpabio visited his home Church again?

inoki247:
Lol maybe process food...


Farmers dey colet presently....

People fit run from farming this year....

Abeg help me ask him oooo, when farmers are lamenting seriously on how much they lost because of the sudden decline in the price of food while he is saying the otherwise.

This dude is not in tune with the current realities on ground as per prices of food items in Nigeria. Fallen prices resulting in farmers incurring heavy losses vis s vis p high prices of farm inputs.

Rubber stamp mofo. The stereotype hanging around your people as gateman and househelp menial job seekers is still there even after your empty boast of putting an end to it. Nonsense

Tinubu is busy wooing governors and assembly member to APC.m and has no time for Nigerians needsThats his priority for now.
