Buhari said Nigerians have no reason to complain of hunger.Speaking with Tambarin Hausa TV, the president said Nigeria can still feed itself despite the floods that had affected farming communities.According to Buhari: “I took that decision to stop rice importation and said we should farm what we eat or die of hunger.
