Femi Otedola sir I bought your book for £16 in January can I get a refund please ? I don’t mind collecting in instalments

FLASH: President, Federal Republic of Nigeria, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu @officialABAT GCFR today commissioned (virtually) the mid level Lagos State Fresh food Hub, Abijo, Lekki-Epe Expressway. Mr President was ably represented by the President of the Senate and Chairman of the National Assembly, Senator Godswill Akpabio @Senator_Akpabio Lagos State Fresh Food Hub—Abijo sits on a 23,000 sqm land with adequate parking facilities, cold and dry storage facilities, expansive trading floors for vendors and beautiful environment for a better shopping experience for consumers. This food hub aims to bring fresh, affordable produce to communities along the Lekki‑Epe corridor, helping to decentralize food access beyond traditional urban centers. The first of its kind was built in Idi-oro Mushin which is fully functional and well patronised, others are also currently being built in Pen Cinema Agege, Bombata; Lagos Island, Oregun Ikeja, Ikorodu and others. This initiative fits into the Lagos Agricultural Roadmap launched in 2021 by Governor @jidesanwoolu, which aims to make Lagos self-sustainable and achieve food security. In the Long term, these food hubs will receive a ready and steady supply of farm produce directly from the ongoing massive Lagos Food logistics in Ketu Ereyun, Epe. #LagosFoodHub #ProduceForLagos #LagosFoodSecurity #PBATInLagos #GreaterLagosRising










If agriculture has demand and supply… why are investors still hesitant? 🤔 Drop your thoughts 👇.




Cassava has been a true game changer for many farmers it feeds families and brings steady income, even in difficult seasons. But in recent years, cassava diseases have become a big problem. Many farmers are losing yields because of these diseases, affecting both food and income. One important solution is enhanced (improved) cassava varieties that are made to resist these diseases. These are crops developed by scientists to stay strong, produce well, and reduce losses. Some farmers worry when they hear the word “biotech,” thinking it might be harmful. But in simple terms, biotech crops are just improved crops that have been carefully developed and tested to be safe for people and the environment. They help plants fight diseases naturally and grow better. Using disease-resistant cassava means: ✔️ Higher yields ✔️ Less crop loss ✔️ More income for farmers ✔️ Better food security Farmers deserve solutions that work. With the right information and improved planting materials, cassava can continue to change lives for the better. Let’s share knowledge and support each other.

You don’t have a food shortage, you have a broken system. When transport fails, produce gets stranded. When costs rise, farmers absorb the loss. When infrastructure is weak, the entire value chain suffers. The crisis isn’t just production, it’s coordination.

FAO lists six pathways to fix Nigeria’s food crisis The Country Director of the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) in Nigeria, Hussein Gadain, has outlined key strategies to reposition Nigeria’s agricultural sector, warning that millions of Nigerians face worsening food insecurity. He said Nigeria must prioritise sustainable and climate-resilient agriculture to boost productivity. “Agriculture in Nigeria must move beyond subsistence farming and pursue sustainable high-yield production without compromising environmental integrity,” he said, adding that improving access to quality seeds, animal breeds, fertilisers and water management systems is essential. Gadain, however, noted that infrastructure remains the biggest challenge facing the sector. “The problem today is not AI or innovation. It is infrastructure. If we look at the value chains, infrastructure is missing,” he said
