The border closure has achieved no purpose as it were, I was against the closure ab initio. The multiplier effect will be such that since we are unable to attain self sufficiency in food production we'll be at the mercy of the forces of supply. Let the border be open but with stringent regulatory measure that will only allow importation of items for which we are comparatively at disadvantage. Let the govt not fear a backlash, since only God is omniscient. They can start with a commodity at a time.

Yes this is a good idea. Unfortunately however, the closure and subsequent rise in prices has exposed just how fragile the food market is. So, now it can be used against us as leverage. In theory, closing borders sounded good, but Nigeria is not equipped to handle the needs of 200m+ people when most farmers are still using hoe and cutlass. Real 21st century farming requires both science and technology, which goes back to the lack of attention in our education sector. Hopefully we learned and will plan better next time

Does he know
He's eating free food, free medical tourism, free clothes, free power supply, free fuel, allowance for his every need. His spokesperson is just paying lip service .

He's always shocked, surprised or unaware of what's happening in Nigeria as its President... ..

That's the nation's monthly minimum wage for a bag of what is supposed to be the worlds cheapest staple food.

We are in a serious crises o.

There are many farming but herders, kidnappers, terrorists have made life for farmers tough.....

Feeder roads to farms in the rainy season is not helping matters as many are simply terrible for transportation of farm produce. I pity poultry farmers, they can barely feed themselves not to speak of their birds...

Buhari should take decisive steps and plan for the future instead of the usual shock and other expressions he displays... This is the time for action Mr President

Proverbs 29:2
When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice: but when the wicked beareth rule, the people mourn.

It's called inflation

This guy has dementia

True as well. All in all, Buhari’s nonchalant attitude in the areas of education and security are now harming the rest of the populace. The sad thing is, if these criminals were from the south, they likely would have been dealt with by now

Under the elder statesman nose prices of foodstuffs is increasing everyday, and he said he's worried.

You are worried about increase in food items and at the same time you are busy increasing fuel and electricity prices what a wonderful president. Sai baba

The silence of those who usually come here to defend Buhari is deafening. I thought only the Igbos say negative things about the president.

Sai baba joor. Buhari is doing well, biko. We love u our dear president.

the way you wrote the most "wickedest" show say e enter blood. Na puppet dey Aso Rock. we don't have a President since last year. Today price of fuel went up, now see headline to contradict am. What does this mean? No President...

Most senseless leader ever in Nigeria history
Now I see reason for his dethronement during the military government.
Very very proficient in incompetent.
Even to sustain gains made by the previous administration who shy.
Get the country better and you said God forbid.
Sell the country you said no buyer. Give us true federalism you said no.
God why? All this Na your fault oh if you ask Me.
Had it been you take this life away. We for no be where we are today.

This man is heartless, sometimes I think God has forsaken us in this country. We the Masses are suffering day by day. And the most useless president in the history of mankind is looking for another way to decieve us. I caused the day you became the president of this country

Buhari is worried about high food price but decided to increase fuel too to balance everything....

And you are still increasing fuel pump price. I rather kill myself than commit suicide!

/
I believe the Presidency gave the mandate to his media handlers to do progressive Press Releases on pressing issues. I don't believe PMB made the statements.It is just Garba Shehu doing his publicity stunt. Do you really believe that Buhari is aware of inflationary pressure on foodstuff? Where? When? How? Yeah right!

The only thing Buhari and his team know is that it is time for breakfast, lunch or dinner and they saunter to sumptuous meals which he usually ends with a toothpick and legs to the table.

Haaa

The truth is, it is not Buhari that expresses the worry.

It is always Garbage Shehu who thinks Nigerians are stupid.

Lies

Mr. President Buhari is worried this time around not shocked

One day one day. We will be free from you. You flogged a child with koboko and still wondering why the child is crying?
