According to am, to grow economy, create jobs and reduce poverty, we must produce more things here instead of dey depend on import.
“Di only way to pull Nigeria out of poverty, or even grow GDP well-well, na through production, not consumption. And production dey start with agriculture — e go give you food, raw materials for factory, and jobs. Na win-win,” e talk.

“We’ve used cheap importation to kill our farmers. We fit do better,” e talk.

E say even though Bangladesh get small land, dem dey produce 15 to 16 million tonnes of unmilled rice every year, and now dem be among di top 3 or 4 rice producers for di world.
“Bangladesh today dey produce 15 to 16 million tonnes of unmilled rice… dem now dey number 3 or 4 for di world,” e talk.
E conclude say if Bangladesh fit do am with small land, Nigeria with our own big-big arable land fit do even pass.
