Read the full news and not headlines: VP discusses this as a potential, the headline gives it a totally different slant! He is not stating a fait accompli. He is evincing a possibility. ============================================= Headline: It’s becoming clearer that Nigeria is the food basket of the world, says Osinbajo Speaking at the Nigerian-German Investment Dialogue in Berlin, Germany, Osinbajo said Nigeria is a leading investment destination for potential and serious investors. “Consumer spending in Africa was $1.4 trillion by 2015, with Nigeria, Egypt and South Africa accounting for more than half of that total,” Osinbajo said. “There are also increasing economic opportunities in Nigeria because of deliberate actions by our government to diversify the economy and improve the business environment. “It is encouraging that there are significant economic ties between Nigeria and Germany. Germany is a significant exporter to Nigeria, which is its second largest trading partner in Africa. “Recent reports show that German investment in Nigeria contributes as much as $1 billion in turnover annually. This is good, but we must agree that there is scope for even deeper collaboration given that Nigeria’s GDP is close to $500bn.” The professor of law said agriculture perhaps presents one of the best investment opportunities in Nigeria, stating that only three years ago the country was importing $5 million worth of rice daily. “Today we produce locally 10 million metric tonnes of paddy rice annually. And we are importing only two percent of our rice consumption now,” Osinbajo said. “Investments in milling capacity has risen astronomically since then, with one investor putting a million tonnes of milling capacity into the market. “Carlos Farms, a Mexican fruit and vegetable investor, had initially planned to grow bananas and pineapples for export until he discovered that he was making more money selling his bananas locally at $3 dollars a kilogramme, for what he would have been paid only a dollar per kg in Europe. “With a substantial percentage of the world’s arable land and over half of that uncultivated, it is becoming clearer that the world will be looking to Africa, and Nigeria in particular, as its food basket. “Just to take China’s demand alone, China has 27% of the world’s population, but only 7% of the world’s arable land for agriculture. China needs 2 million tonnes of hybrid Soya beans per annum for livestock feed and vegetable oil. But we have not met that demand.” https://www.thecable.ng/osinbajo-its-clearer-that-nigeria-is-the-food-basket-of-the-world 1 Like |

Which reputation is Reno talking about? There are worse pastors than Osinbajo in RCCG. The church stinks of hypocrisy. |
