Nonsense. It's always the demented APC minions.

Validated:

Shouldn't we expunge government from our system, so that everyone goes about his own business. No taxes, etc?
All of you are not smart ... same things you termed evil under GEJ, have suddenly become acceptable.
That is the true definition of HYPOCRISY!!!

BossGerald:


So because I be Igbo, I can't talk about the country?? Your mentality is too low

This thread is about Niger republic, you can wait when someone drops a thread about SW then you comment.

YOU'RE NOT NEEDED HERE

You can make your post without sounding bitter

You still haven't comprehend my message. Backyard farming is not exclusive farming. Infact, my mentioning backyard farming is to make people realize how so lazy we are, and how ungrateful not to use the best of all we have CREATIVELY, when compared to a people who are turning their deserts to GREEN LANDS while always putting all of the blame on the government as if those in government are not from our own selves.

Oxb90:
Weep not my country.

Peter Obi or someone like him will come someday to take up the steering of the Nigerian boat and we are going to rejoice then.

You do not expect something from someone who promised you nothing.

I no call anybody name.

Have you stopped eating lizards and frogs like your fathers during the Biafran war?! Food is not a priority to you so much that you can't even grow one yourself?!

Look if know how lazy an average british kid is you won't even say nigerians are lazy. What we desperately need in this country is good governance. i'm telling you if the primary objective of a government is to provide everything necessary for life to be very easy everything will fall in line. We have a very long way to go but first they should work on our differences not just by employing different people from different region but bring up laws that will ban tribal wars or religious wars.

Nigeria is a multicultural country and we practice democracy but there certain tough rules that need to be introduce to address some of the issues we have today. If you want the people to listen you have start fixing everything right from the top. We as a country are not organised and our leaders know this. Not everyone has the will to do farm does that make us lazy absolutely no. There are so many people who have other obligations and there are people who are into farming is to far.

I was expecting you to say the government should buy modern equipments for farmers or provide archers of land and employ people to farm there. As am speaking I doubt if there's any scarcity of food but cost of transportation is the major problem. Let's not get too attached to farming cos not everyone has time for farming the world keep evolving.

Amaggedon:
Lizards especially monitor lizards are eaten everywhere even in yoruba land , frog also is eaten in yoruba land even shit and decomposing human flesh are also used in cooking ewedu soup in yoruba land, so its obvious national food security is not the priority of the yorubas. I'm also wondering if they have finished eating the dead bodies they are always digging out from their graves as we are hungry (ebi npa wa ) has become the national anthem of the yorubas lately. My fathers were even at war for them to eat lizards just imagine your fathers at war what would be their faith.

No nation can develop with backyard subsistence farming practice that you APC goons are trying to push Nigerians into. If that was the case, Buhari would have had increased cattle. Nigerians are not hungry because they are all not going to farm. But they are hungry because the right things have not been don by the government.
Look at that farm in the picture. How many thousands of people it can feed, with machines and few human beings operating on them? But imagine the thousands of Nigerians it would have taken to plant that level of farm land in their various backyards with crude tools like hoe and cutlasses?

Zxcvbnmghtr:


So have you run out of monitor lizards and frogs?!

Pre-Coup Democratic Leadership

- In the decade under Issoufou and Bazoum, per capita income in Niger expanded by 26 percent.
- The World Bank had projected economic growth of 7 percent in 2023 and 12.5 percent in 2024.
- Despite global spikes in food prices, Niger had managed to keep its inflation rate at around 4 percent, the lowest in the West Africa Economic and Monetary Union.
- 2022 was Niger’s first year without a single school day lost to strikes from teachers or students.

Post-Coup Military Junta

- The Nigerien junta has already missed four debt payments and has now defaulted on $519 million in debt.
- World Bank-projected economic growth in 2024 is expected to decline by 45 percent from previous estimates.
- Grain prices such as millet, sorghum, corn, and rice had all increased by more than 12 percent since the same period in 2023, with rice experiencing the highest inflation of 35 percent in the country.

Really So you don't know government is solely responsible for Nigeria's current food shortage? You don't know many people left their farmland due to terrorism, banditry, northern herders and kidnappers. Which one has the government try to stop or even reduce. They have congress yet cannot make simple law to keep citizen safe.

What agricultural program/mechanized farming has government enthroned? Even to engage in price control through tax waiver for company like Indomie to bring down other stable food, nothing. Do you know if a bag of rice is 30k today, every other food will crash in prices. Does the government know that economics. Rice importation will make rice less than 40k. Government said no food import but import fuel. Yet you cast aspersion on poor Nigerians.

“Buhari is not a very hot person on the economy and foreign affairs,” Obasanjo said.

The former President stated this on Monday at the third International Conference on African Development Issues — themed, “Driving inclusive and sustainable development in Africa: Models, methods and policies” — organised by Covenant University, Ota, Ogun State.

While reacting to a question posed to him by a member of the audience: “Is there any hope for Nigeria under the administration of President Muhammadu Buhari?”, Obasanjo replied, “Is there any hope for Nigeria under this administration? I came back from Geneva, Switzerland a few days ago to attend a conference titled, ‘Are elections giving democracy a bad name?’ We had an election, we elected a leader and the good thing about democracy is that the power you have to elect a leader is also the power you have to remove him. I am saying this because I said earlier that if you don’t see any leader that has done well in the 56 years of Nigeria’s independence, then let us forget about Nigeria.

“I will tell you what I know and I will tell you what I don’t know. I know Gen. Muhammadu Buhari. He served under me in the military. His characteristics that I know, his behaviour that I know, he has not deviated from them. He was never a perfect man, he is not a perfect man and no leader can ever be a perfect man because they are human beings. But if you read my book, what I said about him is correct. He is not a hot person when it comes to economy. He is not a very hot person when it comes to foreign affairs. But he will do well in matters of military and he will do well in fighting Boko Haram.”

See as him change backyard to grave yard. Lol
Funny people.

Zxcvbnmghtr:


You all talk as if those in government are some kind of Aliens from some planets. You still lack the straight forward message which is you can't give what you don't have.

Amaggedon:
if i come for you na just to open another account . Dey show me picture of starving children during war as a point? If i show you pictures of your people when there is no war you'd wonder what would be your condition if there is to be a war in your zone . Ordinary niger is making giant stride in agriculture to curb food inflation and to attain food security for it citizen despite the sanctions, but here you are as a slowpoke trying to justify the hunger killing your people even when there is no war just to please tinubu? And what do you mean by funny people? I'm talking to you as na individual and you are talking about people, What people?

anonimi:


How do you know that this is not propaganda by the military government of Niger Republic

Mayflowa:



Yes those in government are Alien. They are greedy demon that hold the destiny of the people. Those in government does not reflect the people we have in Nigeria. These are recycled people. They steal ballot paper, rewrite election result and put their puppet as lawyers. They kill people that antagonize them. Police don't use camera, no camera anywhere, no DNA investigation for murderers or robbers. DNA technology started over 50 years ago and we don't have it for crime investigation. But we were the 6th largest crude oil exporter. To your question again - yes they are aliens.

Zxcvbnmghtr:


No, they are a product of a dysfunctional society which the microest institution is the home. Charity begins at home.

Mayflowa:



There is dysfunctional society everywhere. People come out and change things. You find one person that will do that in any society and we have many but these Aliens will do anything to stop anyone to take up the mettle of leadership.

Racoon:
This is how development comes - when you have focused, responsible and determined leadership irrespective of military or democratic pattern. Same country alongside Burkina Faso, Mali that Tinubu zombies said are landlocked depending on Nigeria for their survival. They have even former their own union alliance thereby cutting themselves from the apron strings of ECOWAS under the fraud on seat.

Now all these nations led by these young military turks have also freed their respective nations from the griphold of neo-colonists and imperialism thereby facilitating their own development. Meanwhile, the disaster they have enthroned have so much bastardized Nigeria beyond repair.

Zxcvbnmghtr:


# Bolded, but Nigerians can't even use their back yard to grow what they can eat despite being so blessed. You are are beginning to comprehend what my comment is all about. Mechanized farming on a large scale by the government is not new, their have been so many projects in the past, among the is operation feed the nation. It's not new. CHARITY BEGINS AT HOME.

Amaggedon:
So the operation feed the nation was a programme designed by individuals or government ? In the rise of food insecurity what measures has the tinubu led federal government put in place to curb it? Are dividual the ones farming grains in ukraine as to have enough to give out even in their state of war? Tell me the agricultural programme that has been put in place by tinubu or the old ones being reimplemented to curb food insecurity by tinubu? Trying to justify nonsense becsuse your tribes man is president even when your people are dieing? Are you not stupid? You think people can farm all the whole farm produce they need to survive if they are not full time farmers?
