President Tinubu addresses the nation’s hunger crisis, acknowledging the challenges while assuring Nigerians that solutions and relief are on the way.
President Bola Tinubu has emphasized his administration’s commitment to transforming Nigeria’s agricultural value chain, particularly the livestock sector, to address hunger, resolve farmer-herder conflicts, and foster economic growth.
Speaking in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, at signing a Letter of Intent between Nigeria and JBS S.A., one of the world’s largest meat processing companies, Tinubu highlighted Nigeria’s livestock industry as a $2.5 billion investment opportunity.
He assured stakeholders that the partnership would mitigate the clashes between farmers and herders and create a thriving economy.
“We are turning a situation of tragedy and hopelessness into economic opportunity,” Tinubu said. “Food security is essential. While hunger exists now, there is hope on the horizon. You represent part of that hope.”
