The President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), says his regime has set Nigeria on the right track as Africa’s leading fertiliser producer.

Buhari made the disclosure on Tuesday at the State House in Abuja, while receiving the Executive Committee of Fertiliser Producers and Suppliers Association of Nigeria.

Whilst commending the FEPSAN for its collaborative efforts with the government in promoting the agricultural value chain, Buhari expressed optimism that the era of persistent shortage of fertiliser across the country had now become a history. He said, “When this administration came to office in 2015, our focus was on three key areas: security, economy, and corruption.”‘‘For Nigeria, a predominantly agrarian nation, having an inclusive economy meant we needed to prioritise the enhancement of our agricultural value chain.

According to the President, it became incumbent on his government to enforce a reversal of the status quo ante, as the nation is naturally blessed with the necessary wherewithal including most of the raw materials it needs to mass-produce fertilisers.
