QUESTIONS BUHARI'S LED ADMINISTRATION NEEDED TO ADDRESS BEFORE GOING ON WITH THE DIVERSIFICATION AGENDA.

By Muhammad Basakkwace 

It's high time we think above our ears, Buhari's led administration is trying to please the masses using a wrong channel.

The buhari's administration  always talk about diversifying to agriculture, which I believe is not a bad idea but can not work for now. Below are the questions one need to ask him self before thinking about diversifying.

1-do u know that diversifying means competing with foreign products?

2-How do u expect nigeria to be agriculturally productive when inflation is at almost 20%?

3-when imported commodities are cheaper than the locally produced commodities even at a consumer price? 

4-when the level of depreciation Of Naira will make the farmers access imported machines at a higher price?

5- how can we diversify when developed countries farmers access loan at 0-1-2% interest?  

And list goes on and on.

Do not quote me wrong! it's obvious that there's need for us to diversify, but if the above stated problems are not being addressed, the diversification agenda of buhari will remain and be seen as the WORST AND THE BADDEST investment ever on agriculture. 

This kind of bad foresight is what leads to the abuse of Africans by the likes of trump and Netanyahu of Israel.
