Presidency Urges Governors, Council Chairmen to Address Food Crisis, Hardship in Nigeria

The Presidency has urged state governors and council chairmen to awaken to their responsibilities as a remedy for the food crisis and hardships in Nigeria.

Bayo Onanuga, Special Adviser on Information and Strategy to President Bola Tinubu, emphasized that Nigeria would see improvement if governors and local government chairmen enhance food production in their respective areas.

Posting on X, Onanuga criticized governors for blaming the Federal Government for the food shortage in the country.

Let the governors and council chairmen wake up to their responsibilities. The Federal Government is not the only actor in town.

“You have your duties cut out for you. Imagine each state making efforts to boost food production in its domain, build one world class hospital, good roads, good schools etc. Imagine what our country would have become.

“But while governors and the councils shirk their responsibilities, they are quick to call out the Federal Government, which is far away from the people those governors govern

“Let all governors govern well, along with their councils, food inflation, at least, will disappear. Our Federalism may not be perfect, but we are not a unitary state, where everything must flow from the centre,” he said.

Kanyi Daily recalls that Bayo Onanuga
said that state governors have no reason to fail their people as they are well-supported by  Tinubu’s administration
