Who is hoarding the bags of rice that Buhari is unveiling?

If the Federal Government does not sell rice to households, and retailers, it shouldn't spend public funds displaying meaningless pyramids.
Buhari need not have an expo to showcase a spoon of rice. When there's sufficiency in production, it will tell in the economy as it will self reflect in the prices in which such product is sold in the market. The government needn't spend public funds transporting truck loads of rice to Abuja for jamboree photo display, and sooner to their huts. If there is so much rice as the government is claiming, then, somebody is in control of this market and the price rise. Unfortunately, this government always fails the truth test, as his former Minister of Agriculture, in the person of Audu Ogbeh once said Nigeria will start exporting yam. Till date, there's nothing tangible to show for it. In his remark, the Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria said that as at the end of 2021, CBN had financed 4.5 million farmers that cultivated 5.3 million hectares across 21 commodities through 23 Participating Financial Institutions, across Nigeria including FCT The Government of Buhari is not planning on exporting rice off the coast of Nigeria, like his government proposed to export yam as suggested by the former Minister of Agriculture, Audu Ogbeh. Both rice and yam are not near enough for domestic consumption as prices have not plunged. A sized bag of rice in Nigeria still stands at around 25,000, to 30-35,000 naira. Who is in charge of telling the lies to this man. Is it Lai Mohammed? Or he's simply too old to understand the Buharinomics that didn't work in 1983-1985 won't function in 2022? You cannot build something upon nothing

"We're not doing a wall. Does anyone have any doubt that we're not doing a wall?

The new US House of Representatives, which is now controlled by Democrats, has approved legislation to end a two-week partial government shutdown without funding President Donald Trump's proposed wall along the border with Mexico. The lower chamber on Thursday - the 13th day of the shutdown - passed six bills to fund the government for 2019 and an additional bill to fund the Department of Homeland Security through February 8. However, the impasse is likely to remain as the Republican-controlled Senate is expected to block the legislation amid veto threats by the White House. Following a meeting between Trump and top congressional leaders on Wednesday, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said the body would not take up the Democratic legislation because Trump wouldn't sign it. But the new House speaker, veteran Democrat Nancy Pelosi, stood firm shortly before Thursday's vote, saying no funding for a border wall would be made available. "We're not doing a wa...
