President Buhari yesterday asked traditional rulers in Nigeria to
mobilize their subjects to go back to their farms. Buhari made the
appeal while hosting Council of Traditional Rulers at the state house
Abuja yesterday June 29th. He said the dwindling price of oil has forced
the Federal government to look in other directions to source for
revenue.
"In food production, Nigeria, we can feed ourselves and even export.
This is why we are seriously turning to agriculture. That is why I’m
asking you, for our own survival as a nation state, keep on telling our
people that whoever has a piece of land, please let him cultivate it
even if he is going to cultivate what he will eat and feed his family.
This is very, very serious representation I brought to you to please
make sure that you mobilize your people to go back to farm to achieve
self-sufficiency in food production,’’ he said.
