In a nation rich with resources, we inport most of our consumer goods yet export very little. Its crazy obvious that something is wrong with the system. Instead of chanelling all the nation's energy towards oil production, the nation should pay attention to sustainable long term initiatives in the agricultural sector. We're a blessed nation- we should be constantly seeking ways to leverage our resources- human and otherwise. I had no idea there were displaced farmers in Kwara.
