President Muhammadu Buhari has told Nigerians to be willing to farm what they would eat or starve to death, stating that no one has the right to complain of hunger in Nigeria.

Buhari stated this on Wednesday in an interview with Tambarin Hausa TV, a Kano State-based media, that despite the floods that had devastated farming communities, Nigeria could still feed itself.

He added that one of the policies he undertook upon assuming office in 2015 was to block the Nigerian borders from food importation and force people back to farm.

He said, “I took that decision to stop rice importation and said we should farm what we eat or die of hunger.”

“I said that since we have farm land and God has blessed us with rain, what reason does a Nigerian have to say he’s hungry?”

If you are hungry, go to the farm. I’m aware that floods have ravaged some farmlands this season but we are still selling rice made in Nigeria, and we can feed ourselves. Is that not an achievement?”

“We have workers who left their air-conditioned offices and went into farming, and they had bounty harvests. So, we are grateful.”

Oloriburuku na him you this Buhari be ! Listen , go back to differentiate between peasant and resourceful values ! Are u saying Nigerian should go back to their 100 sq meter of a bag of corn that wouldn’t feed a family for one week ? Can you explain in detail your government policy ? How do you make up cultivation of a peasant size farm that has no food security for a household to been self reliance or self sustenance.Man a fe tell ya education is priceless.

The farms your fulani terrorists have chased the owners out of ? . Just  get out of  office  as soon as possible so that the  remaining  Nigerians  hunger and your fulani herdsmen  couldn't kill can breathe  again. May anything like you and  APC  never  come our way again.

The only sensible thing Bahari has uttered although his presidency. We're bunch of lazy brats, full of energy but chronically dependents on others, handouts to survive.  Why would Ukraine war affect food prices in our villages is mind bugging. We've everything, water, rivers, streams and you name it, yet we live near the ocean and continue to wash our hands with spit, fool and lazy people.
