Tweeting, Sani wrote: \u201cYou cannot have food security in a country where farmers are slaughtered by terrorists and farming communities are forced to pay levies to Bandits.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe declaration of emergency on food security exposed the deception about those rice pyramids and the futility of closing the land borders.\u201d<\/p>\n

Recall that President Bola Tinubu had declared a state of emergency on food.<\/p>\n

This was a step to mitigate the sufferings experienced by Nigerians following the removal of fuel subsidy.<\/p>\n

Tinubu took the decision after wide consultation with stakeholders in the food and agriculture value chain, co-opting the Central Bank of Nigeria, Customs, Farmers Association, key financial experts, among others.<\/p>\n
