President Muhammadu Buhari has sent Eid greetings on the occasion of Eid-El-Adha that is being celebrated across the world.
In his message marking the auspicious Islamic festival, the President in a statement by presidential spokesman, Garba Shehu, restated the determination of his administration to create a just, harmonious and prosperous country in which the safety of life and property is assured. Reflecting on current challenges facing the country, the President stated that, “COVID-19 pandemic has taken a heavy toll on the economies of all countries, including Nigeria, in addition to the fact that floods have caused large scale destruction to agricultural farmlands, thereby impacting negatively on our efforts to boost local production in line with our policy to drastically reduce food importation.
He added, “apart from the destruction caused to rice farms by floods, middlemen have also taken advantage of the local rice production to exploit fellow Nigerians, thereby undermining our goal of supporting local food production at affordable prices.” “As an elected president who enjoys the goodwill of the ordinary people that gave us their mandate, let me assure you that we are continuing with measures to bring relief to Nigerians, including making fertilizer available at affordable prices to our farmers.”
