Former President Muhammadu Buhari says he’s pleased that more Nigerians have taken to the farm to grow more food and feed the nation.

Stressing that uncontrolled population growth was a matter for concern, Buhari appealed to Nigerians to make the country self-reliant by continue to grow their food and buy food made in Nigeria.

The former Nigerian leader spoke when addressing journalists in Daura, Katsina State on Sunday, June 16.

A statement issued by Mallam Garba Shehu, quoted Buhari as saying, “I use this occasion to make an appeal to all citizens to make Nigeria self-reliant. Let us grow our own food. We have shown that we can do it. This is not the time to relent when we see prices going up.

Let us buy what is produced in the country. The foundation of a prosperous and stable country has been laid by successive governments, and I encourage our youth, in particular, to continue to play an active role in various nation-building efforts.

I urge the youth of the country to seek to know about the founding fathers of the nation, the important personalities of their regions, and derive inspiration from them.”
