“We are not happy that many Nigerians cannot buy food.
“We have no shortage of food anywhere in the country. The prices are a bit high. Farmers won’t lose, but those who do not farm have to eat food as well, “he said.
He explained that some factors that led to the high price of food items in the country includes; bad roads network to transport food items from one point to another.
“Roads are bad and transporter will tell you that it costs high to move food from one place to the other.
“I was in Ekiti recently. A tuber of yam I saw that was sold for N300 was sold for N1500 in Lagos.
“There is no reason for that kind of hike. We should all be reasonable and know that not all have to be farmers. Those that are not farmers played higher role in the country’s development too,” he said.
