He made references to the agricultural sector with the claim that they inherited four functional fertilizer processing companies utilising them to 52 functioning in different states today.
His words:
“In agriculture alone, the Rice Farmers Association of Nigeria (RIFAN) is talking about 12 million new jobs, look at what we did in agriculture, this administration inherited just four functional fertilizer processing companies, we have 52 that are working today.”
“And this shifted the supplies of fertilizer to these 12 million new rice farmers, today rice farmers alone domestically produce rice. This country has achieved food sufficiency, we have diversified the economy, we are no longer a monocultural economy.”
“This country had spent $5 billion before this administration every day to buy foreign rice, today no one US Dollar leaves the Central Bank of Nigeria for foreign rice.”
Some Nigerians were heavily grieved by his revelation and heavily lambasted him via all the social media platforms.
Question of the day:
Is honest with his revelation?
