The Minister of Agriculture and Food Security, Abubakar Kyari, has issued a stern warning against hoarding and speculative trading as the Federal Government intensifies efforts to scale up food production in the country.

The minister gave this warning on Sunday in Abuja at a special Ramadan lecture/Iftar organised by the Special Assistant to the President on Agriculture and Food Security, Mufutau Yinusa, and the Asiwaju Project Beyond 2023, an NGO. The lecture had as its theme “Gratitude, Patience and Vision: Embracing challenges with Optimism”.

“We have seen and discovered some warehouses in big commodity areas where even gates are removed and walls built just to hoard foodstuff inside. “So when you look at those things and say it’s Bola Tinubu, I think we are not being fair to the administration of this government. “So we have to look inward, we all have a role to play,” he said.
