The People’s Democratic Party says Nigeria now ranks 98 out of 107 in Global Hunger’s index under President Muhammadu Buhari’s watch.
National Publicity Secretary of the party, Kola Ologbondiyan said this in an official statement over the weekend.
Ologbondiyan also said over 82.9 million Nigerians can no longer feed themselves due to the failure of the Buhari administation.
“over 82.9 million Nigerians can no longer afford their daily meals due to the failure of the administration to take practical steps to grow and protect the food sector, thereby leading to severe food scarcity with prices soaring beyond the reach of Nigerians,” he said.
“Today, under the APC, a bag of rice which sold for N8,000 under the PDP now sells for N30,000, a measure of garri and beans which sold for N150 and N250 now sell for N500 and N800 respectively,” he added.
