What an unfortunate statement coming from the minister of Agriculture. With this sort of thinking , I don’t see any positive outcome from his appointment .

One day, we will beat this people. Maybe then they will begin to feel our pains and run away from political offices if they have nothing to offer.
Imagine if after 1 year in office, you are brought to the public for National slaps or Honor. 9 delegated slappers from each state!!Advertisement— Fingertrickz Productions (@fingertrickz) October 15, 2019
Yes, because the hungry masses has not raise against those people that are making their livelihood with our common wealth.

This man had better not attract curses to himself with such downright hypocritical and insensitive statements. I was close to abusing him but restrained myself. Nonsense!

He spoke in the language of faith. Everything here is committed to God’s hand. If policies can’t fix the economy, you speak positive change into being. “There is no hunger in the land”. Amen!

The first step of solving a problem is admitting there is a problem. But this Government don't even believe there is a food crisis so how can they address the issue when they believe Nigerians are not suffering.

Minimum wage #30k, bag of rice #23k. No hunger. Clowns and hypocrisy. I think they are laughing at us. More clowning ahead guys.

They know that Nigerians are not yet tired, when we are really tired of this government, we know what to “Do”. But for now, we are still enjoying the next level✌
