What exactly have you done with rice?

Are you not in Nigeria? Are you not a Nigerian?

If you are sincerely ignorant about the fact that Nigerians now produce and eat their own rice instead of massive importation from Thailand, then you need to wake up from your slumber. Research and update yourself.

However, if you are deliberately trying to denigrate the effort of my country in becoming self sufficient in rice production, then keep the negative energy to yourself.

Let's press on with local food sufficiency drive. We did it with RICE. Let's take the anchor borrowers' program further and expand the scope.

Nigeria also has the capacity to become self sufficient in poultry production, which itself has mass employment potentials: egg production, hatchery for chicks, broiler production, plastic pourtly farm equipment, feed production, veterinary products, etc.

Government also needs to develop a policy to encourage local FABRICATION of machines for food processing and making fruit concentrates because the quantity of orange and mangoes that go to waste annually is heart-breaking.

Farming without input and modern farm tools? you are joking!

The man of Taqqiya wants to tell Nigerians in the south the false narrative that the peasant farmers in his northern Nigeria are now the backbone of Nigeria and its economy.

Buhari doesn’t understand that every region in Nigeria has enough land to farm and feed its people.

See what you are saying, it shows all you do is just sit at home.
Many food processing machines are produced in Nigeria now, from flash dryers, to milling systems, destoners etc.
The youths in this country should sit up and participate rather than lurk somewhere and observe.

All the things I listed are already currently going well inspite of our erratic power supply. I am only advocating that FG and State government should by way of policy enthrone soft loans, incentives, standardization, etc to ramp up. If we wait till we have steady power, we won't go further.

If you are ashamed of others knowing about your failures, the best way is to fight your failures & not the people, your success will change people’s opinion but only the efforts will convert failures into success.
Very inspirational.

Please kindly release the resources your govt and other previous administrations have stolen to buy food. Also ask EFCC to release recovered loots in their possession for that purpose. Thank you.

Is there standardization of technology as far as those food processing machines are concerned? Do fabricators or technologists have easy access to capital to mass produce or make industrial version of those machine? Why are food and fruit harvests still waste in large quantity? Is there not a need to have a food processing policy?

Read my comment again. I am advocating government intervention to scale things up. Leave emotion and prejudice behind.

Let me remind all that Prophet TB Joshua has been advocating the importance of agriculture and returning to farming for several years. He even specifically reiterated this during the 2020 prophecy

Speaking from both sides of his mouth, has farming being listed among the essential services?

Most farmers do not have ID card, some has in the neighbouring state.

Go back to which farms ? The ones your Fulani friends have turned into slaughter pits and our farmers fodder for there pits?

If you know how much Nigerians spent on data subscription and online transactions during the pandemic , you'll be wowed and Nigeria is only a fraction of the world population .Do the maths : from other African countries to Europe, America and Asia.
