Abiara to FG: Empower farmers to boost Nigeria’s food security

THE founder of Christ Apostolic Church (CAC) Agbala Itura and a global evangelist, Prophet Samuel Abiara, has called on President Bola Tinubu to heed to the cries of the masses and prioritise critical issues affecting the nation.

The renowned cleric stated this through a press release made available to Tribune Church News by his media aide, Elder Daodu Gbenga, appealing to the Federal Government to urgently empower the farmers to enhance food security for the nation.

Prophet Abiara also emphasised the importance of enabling farmers to supply adequate food to the nation, while ensuring their safety through enhanced security measures with agriculture being a cornerstone of the Nigerian economy. He stressed the necessity of providing farmers with the necessary support and protection to carry out their role effectively.

He also highlighted several economic challenges plaguing the country, including currency issues, inconsistency in fuel prices, electricity shortages, and inadequate infrastructure such as roads. He urged government at all levels (both state and local) to collaborate with the federal government to address these pressing issues promptly, recognizing their significant impact on the lives of Nigerians and the overall stability of the nation.

Abiara emphasised the importance of fulfilling electoral promises made to the Nigerian people, reminding the president and his team that their position of authority is bestowed upon them by divine providence. He called for accountability and transparency in governance, urging leaders to listen to the voices of the masses and take concrete actions to fulfill their commitments.

Prophet Abiara also encouraged citizens to embrace agriculture and return to the farm to support the nation’s development and growth. He stressed on the collective responsibility of all Nigerians in fostering a prosperous and secure future for the country.
