The President said his administration is determined to create ‘just, harmonious and prosperous country” where safety of lives and property can be guaranteed.
He said that the current security crisis in the contry was having adverse effect on agriculture as farmers cannot freely access their farms as a result of the activities of terrorists.
He however promised that the situation is being addressed, adding that the government has started taking delivery of fighter aircraft and other necessary military equipment.
He said, “No government in our recent history has invested as heavily as we are doing to promote local production of about 20 other commodities, through the provision of loans and several other forms of support to our farmers.
“Apart from the destruction caused to rice farms by floods, middlemen have also taken advantage of the local rice production to exploit fellow Nigerians, thereby undermining our goal of supporting local food production at affordable prices.”
