President Muhammadu Buhari has decried prevailing outrageous prices of food, ram and other items in the market, saying the development was not consistent with virtues of Islam.

In his message marking the occasion of Eid-el-Adha being celebrated across the world today, President Buhari appealed to Muslims “to demonstrate the good virtues of Islam through personal examples and practices.”

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.

“Let me also use this opportunity to reassure Nigerians that we are taking measures to address our security challenges. We have started taking delivery of fighter aircraft and other necessary military equipment and hardware to improve the capacity of our security forces to confront terrorism and banditry,” he added.IN his message to Nigerians, national leader of the All Progressives Congress , Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, urged faithful not to forget the reason for Eid-el-Kabir.

The blood of thousands of innocent souls being wasted daily in Nigeria at various troubled spots, particularly the stress of school children in the North, should be enough mitigation to plead to God to save this country from destruction.” Saraki in his Sallah message released in Ilorin and signed by his media aide, Yusuph Olaniyonu, also noted that, like last year, this year’s festival is holding with the pandemic still prevalent, as the challenge has prevented many Muslims from embarking on the holy pilgrimage.

What Mr President should decries is rising exchange rate..... What we are all witnessing is as a result of devaluation of our naira, it will for sure have multiplying effects on all sectors. Farmers need more money to afford other things in the market.

Those prices are directly proportional to his economic policies.
