If they north have food as you calm then why are they first to protest, brother live am Tinubu is not the kind of president we need now that baba has nothing to offer
Elliotwaveforec:
Greedy farmers are the cause! The northern farmers are weaponising food to destabilise the government of Tinubu; they deliberately and arbitrarily raised prices of foods.

The protection these greedy farmers have been enjoying is being removed through the removal of import duty on some products. They will beg the government to return the tariff, this I know.

Food inflation will surely come down and the Naira will rise to 910 from the present 1625; it will not touch the highest of 1750 before it drops to 910

This is the peak of hardship and it can never get worse than this

From here on, the inflation can only decrease.

Going by KPMG recent analysis, its more promising to see the inflation rate fall to 29% before December than it threatens to rise above 37% within the same period
Na statistics we go chop?

Obi was shouting invest in the people I honestly blame him sha this people are too dumb to understand

APC when they hear invest in the people they think it's giving palliatives or giving people money... That's far from it

Why are foods expensive ... Outside the general inflation there are specific reasons why some are more inflated than others

1) Beans - a large percentage of beans we eat in Nigeria comes from Niger Republic, a very large chunk.. I estimate about 65% ... President Tinubu handling of the Niger crisis forced niger to close it's border with Nigeria.. Now must beans are smuggled to nigeria through Chad, or Cameron increasing the price significantly and our weakened currency especially with respect to CFA is another issue

2) tomatoes - most tomatoes farms in nigeria is affected by what's called Tuta absoluta (tomatoes Ebola) this is not the first time it is happening and won't be the last

Funny thing is there are tomatoes resistant to this issue... A wise government would fund ITTA Ibadan to develop this resistant breeds and distribute it to our farmers...

The tomatoes we have now mostly come from Cameroon and our weakened currency makes it worse

3) yam- the issue of yam is mainly insecurity .. Majority of yam cultivation belts is where u have Fulani herdsmen issues... From Niger to nassarawa to Abuja to Benue to plateau..

Solutions to this is simple get the farmers to form corporatives of 50 farms or 500 hectarss

Tell them to nominate 5 people to be trained by the police and armed to defend their farms


I can go on and on about the rest... But one thing is sure Tinubu n his administration don't know jack about food security

They know they can fix food security through these tips, but they won't. They need people to suffer, suffering makes people more pliable

Apart from Gbagi/Gwari and some hausas of northern Nigeria with Fulani cattle rearers, the rest Nigerians don't believe in farming activities, they all believe that if they make money then they can buy whatever food they need. Am not sure we have up to 5 million farmers in Nigeria, while we outh to have at least 50 million large scale farmers and not a mare 5 million peasant farmers.

Is there any nation in the world with such population of farmers? Tinubu is a failure

Will this 50 million large scale farmers farm in the sky? What is the total land area of your country? Abi you don't know what large scale farming means?

This is how your master said he will recruit 50 million soldiers and feed them with corn and cassava.

What about herdsmen, bandits and terrorists attacking farmers and preventing them from engaging in their source of livelihood in various parts of the country?

USA have around 2 million farms in 2017.

What are you doing with 50 million large scale farmers? Do you have a population of trillions?

Ask am first what the total land area of Nigeria is, to accommodate these 50million large scale farmers.

Hearing all this you did think there's solution to Nigeria problem in sight...

You are already a wealth Man... All the years of strategic planning to amass wealth can't you use them to cushion the effect of hunger on the Masses..

What is the effect of Democracy or dividend of democracy,.. when you as the president is not sensitive to people's plaint...

If this planned protest go bloody... International community should hold the president responsible...

So what do you mean by all those statements, before APC we didn't have this famine, but Now we have it.

Imagine How you left you left insecurity that have killed all our farmers and chased others away and you are blabbing bullshit here, APC people really have liquid brain.

Nigeria does not need that large number of farmers. USA with over 300 million population has 1.8 million farmers. Netherlands with about 17.7 million people has less than 60k farmers. The proportion you suggested is even less than that of Indian. With half a million large scale farmers we can greatly improve our domestic needs and around 1 million plus we certainly will be exporting substantial amounts.

People are ready to go into large scale mechanized farming but insecurity is scaring them away. Our bandits, herdsmen and kidnappers are still around.

Why do you think we have proliferation of Hausa Okada riders in southern Nigeria; most of them were framers driven from their farms by bandits.

I'm sorry about that. Please pray for Nigeria. The youths, leaders and celebrities are not even care or serious about anything. You increase minimum wage for workers. What about none workers and unemployed. What I know is no business man or woman would sell her goods and services the same price when minimum wage was 33k. Expect more inflation and price increases 🥶🥶
