President Muhammadu Buhari said on Monday, 26th March 2018 that Nigeria has been experiencing very turbulent times under his three years administration.
The president made this declaration during the inauguration of the National Food Security Council at the Presidential Villa, he said: “Nigeria’s journey in the last three years has been a very turbulent one. The country’s need for critical job-creating sectors which has been ignored for decades is now beginning to yield results.”
President Buhari however, mentioned that his administration will through the National Food Security Council enhance agriculture and social development. He said the plan is to help ‘millions of Nigeria’.
The President added:
“We introduced the national social investment programmes targeting millions of Nigerians who are living from hand to mouth. We launched agricultural programmes focusing on import substitution, job creation and rural development thereby bringing socio-economic transformation to the millions of citizens living in some of the most remote rural parts of our country.
“We commenced the long-term pollution remediation projects in the Niger Delta with the hope of restoring dignity and normalcy to the millions of Nigerians impacted by decades of pollution in their communities.
“We intensified our participation in the Lake Chad Basin Commission with the goal of reversing the shrinkage of the lake, which impacts the livelihoods of over 45 million farmers, herdsmen and fishermen in the LCBC countries.
“We issued the first ever green bond that will act as a catalyst for investments in renewable energy and afforestation projects. This was oversubscribed, sharing market confidence in the country and our government.
“We established the agro rangers’ unit within the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps to protect the billions of naira of investments recorded in Nigeria’s agricultural sector across the country.”
