He stated this in a statement he issued in Kano yesterday, describing the trend and its attendant burden on the people as quite alarming.

“I have observed that the cost of basic food items is rising astronomically across the rural communities in the Northern States and other parts of the country.

“This trend and its attendant economic burden on the people are quite alarming, especially at the start of the harvest season when food crops are expected to be sold at affordable prices.

“It is most unfortunate that insecurity, banditry and other nefarious activities of criminals in most of the food-producing areas, among other factors have contributed to the rising food prices and food insecurity in the nation,” he stated.

He called for immediate checking of the situation as it is getting out of hand and contributing to hardship in the country.

“This ugly trend needs to be checked immediately before things get completely out of hand, as it portends serious threat to our national food security and stability as a nation” he added.

“I call on the Federal, State and Local Governments, as well as all relevant stakeholders to take immediate strategic actions to avert this palpable danger and ameliorate the situation in the overall interest of the nation.

“I appeal to all Nigerians to continue to support the Renewed Hope Agenda of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR aimed at putting our nation back on track for sustainable economic growth and long-term prosperity” he declared.
