WORLD FOOD DAY: HUNGER IN NIGERIA, NOW A NATIONAL EMERGENCY
Yesterday, as the world marked International Rural Women’s Day, I joined Nigerian rural women who produce the food that sustains our population. What became clear to me is that hunger in the country must be declared a national emergency.
Today, as the world marks World Food Day, Nigerians are confronting a painful reality: hunger, poverty, and insecurity continue to affect millions of families across the country.
Nigeria is now one of the hungriest countries in the world, ranking 117th out of 125, down from 109th out of 125 in 2023, when the current administration came into office. The Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO) estimates that about 36 million Nigerians will face acute hunger this year.
The tragedy is even more painful because Nigeria has vast, arable, and fertile land. Yet about 60% remains uncultivated, providing forest hideouts for terrorist organisations and other non-state actors.
On World Food Day, the message is clear: Nigerians deserve a country where no family goes to bed hungry, farmers can work without fear, and poverty and insecurity are confronted with urgency and compassion.
The fight against hunger must be treated as a national emergency.
Under our leadership, we will secure the country and return our hardworking farmers to their farms. They will receive targeted grants, subsidies, and other forms of support.
Together, we can build a Nigeria where no one goes to bed hungry and every farmer can work in peace and dignity. A New Nigeria is POssible.
Nigeria will be OK. -PO

For a long time, he's been the lonely voice in the jungle crying out.
This is the unrepentant stance every influencer and celebrity should take.
Posterity will be kind to Tunde Ednut.
@tutututuulip And of course, all you have to do to deserve such a man is to just *exist* because posessing female parts apparently makes you special.
Bunch of awful, mediocre, self-immersed, boring people who have never been told that you actually need to work to get whatever it is you want.
Hi everyone 🙏🏽🙏🏽please the same thing happened to me in 2023 and I have been silent for a long time I was this close committing suic!de thanks to my family and friends. I was lucky to know what AI will become by now so 2022 I was longing to do my masters in AI architecture or robotics and the immigration consultant I paid is @GuynamedGrumpy who has blocked me everywhere . Very heartless the!f he knew he gave me fake documents yet made me go for biometrics to apply for visa . After I reached out to his twin brother who only insulted me , I told him I will call his brother out so later @GuynamedGrumpy reached out to me via WhatsApp then confessed (I have the evidence) that he generated fake receipts and admission for me for centennial college Canada @CentennialEDU to study Ai architecture . after I sent someone to the school physically and found out that my school id was another person’s. He promised to refund me my money but did little by little and now has completely ghosted me without giving me my balance . Simon favor give me my money you stole from me .
I don't know which is worse, trying to normalise your pussy being odorful or telling the whole world you've been guzzling stinky dicks your whole life💔
