#RUGA: One of the Biggest Challenge of Discussing Solutions to the Nigeria National Question as it Relates to Agriculture Particularly with Animal Husbandry is That Those with No Idea or only Sentimental Ideal of How the Problem of Herdsmen Can Be Solved are The Most Vocal.

#OCCUPYFARMS: Don't Be Deceived Nigerians, No President Has Been As Honest With You as @MBuhari When it Comes to What Agriculture Can Do and The Effort Needed to Make Agriculture Work for Nigeria.

With 84million Arable Hectares of Farmland and a Population Topping 200million,

2. There is No Sector Capable of Sustainable Economic Growth Outside Farming and Agribusiness. We Have The Ability to Mop up 25million Jobs Even Though Low Paying Within 5years, We Have The Capacity of Becoming independent When it Comes to Food Production in a Decade and That

3. Will Reduce the Demand 4D USD By Over 30%.

We Can Basically Connect Rural Nigeria to Local Markets With Roads and Power, We Can Stop The Nonsense Foreign Dependency Habits & Consume Made in Nigeria and This Will Be For the Good of All not Some Nigerians but All Nigerians.

2. The Habits of 10% of Nigerians Who Will Most Likely Abuses This Country After Helping Them Massage Their Egos & Insane Vanity?

From Aba to All Major Markets in Nigeria, From Wuse Market to Several Streets All over the Major Cities Across Nigeria Are Shoemakers Making Lovely

3. Shoes, Tailors Designing Wonderful Dresses and Sustaining Nigeria Informally. Why Should Nigeria Keep Feeding The Insane Need for Foreign Designers Fashion With over $1billion Annually and They Will Turn Around and Echo Donald Trump Shithole Country to Our Faces?
