Former Vice President of Nigeria, Atiku Abubakar, has advised the federal government to urgently address what he says is a looming food crisis in the

Abubakar in a statement titled, “Let Us Address this Looming Food Crisis before It becomes a calamity”, said he based his advice on the warning recently issued by the Food and Agricultural Organization, FAO in the country.

The former Vice President lamented that the laissez-faire approach taken by the Federal Government to this most important issue is regrettable, emphasising that food security is a vital part of national security, and where this issue is not resolved, the resultant crisis may unsettle the nation and her immediate neighbours.

Atiku said what ought to happen is that the federal and state governments should establish a Food Security Military Taskforce to work in farming clusters, to provide security for the nation’s farmers, adding that Nigeria must give confidence to their agriculture workers so that the sector can get on with the job of feeding the nation.
