There's absolutely nothing disheartening here in my opinion. Look, the earlier we stop politicizing every movement, the better for us. It's good to shy away from discussions like this if you don't have knowledge of international relation. If you read through the link, you'll discover that the speaker is/was a politician like every other persons who talk about this gesture to discredit the present administration.

This is not the first time Ukraine or any other country is donating food or other forms of aids to Nigeria. It's important you should know that Nigeria did not request for this aid but it was just an humanitarian gesture from Ukraine in order to strengthen their relationship with Nigeria. There is no country in this world that is absolutely independent, each country faces one or other challenges. Nigeria is facing challenges too but still also donating to countries that need help in one way or another especially in Africa. I actually see no big deal here because rejecting the donation would have negative impact on the relationship between this two countries.

For clarity, Nigeria is not having food shortage. There is actually enough food in the country just that the prices are way too high due to some factors both internally and externally. What we currently need is stability of prices which I believe will give us some relief if eventually achieved.

Talking about fertile land, it's actually truth we are blessed with fertile lands especially in the northern part of the country but the truth is how many of us are ready to engage in farming? When everyone is forming and sees farming as a poor man occupation. Government is doing her best to support agriculture but we the citizens are part of the problems too. I have seen where people benefit from government agricultural intervention but end up selling the equipments and materials. Where's the government fault here?

If the way we complain about this country is the same way we are making efforts to make it better, we would have gone far honestly.

I hope the 25,000 metric tonnes of grains donated to the 1.3 million Nigerians by the magnanimous Ukrainian Authorities still in war with the Russian government is a serious matter, and it deserves attention of Nigerians in the academia, the press, social media and other critical groups.
Again, the Nigerian Politicians like the requisite knowledge, experience and skills to articulate good policies for the improvement of the lives of the citizens.
Finally, the attempts by the Nigerian government to dabble into the already functioning crypto currency exchange innovation in the global village is biting what it could not chew.
I hope the Politicians are jittery and jealous over the income redistribution mechanisms of the crypto currency operations in the international world, Nigeria in particular, which is tilted in favour of both the lower social class and the middle class. Operators and Participants in the crypto currency deals in Nigeria enjoy same access to greatness with the acquisitions of properties as the politicians.
Thus, it is just fear of wealth redistribution that is making the shakeup between the Nigerian government and binance.

My fear somehow is that with all this rumors of war within and between neighbouring countries, this country strands no chance to fight and think of winning a war when there isn't any food reserves to feed the troops or even starving citizens.
Ordinary palliative, the politicians and those appointed to be in charge will hoard these items instead of to distribute. Only to collect and keep is all that's the game and that's greed. Funny enough as they have collected the grains from war thorn Ukraine, how and what do they intend to do with it?

As I always say all time given attention to the happening if this nation can cut person life short the best us to avoid  anything that will add thinking and move ahead sourcing your way to succeed.

Just as removal if subsidy us today so it will be in the case of monitoring crypto and biance by our government because until you solve a problem from the root the solution has not be completely achieve, let them continue with blame game it will come to a point the economy will be worst than fighting civil war.

How can you get food where the rural area is not at peace and can't farm because of kidnapping and herdsmen killing, why the rural area is the food basket of the city.

How can you stop importation where few individual is giving liesence to produce what billion population is making used of and you think inflation will not over take the nation.
The less you think about the nation the mire your solve your psychology problem and balance your body from BP issue

OP, I really commend you for bringing this thread here is very dishearten for such news to befall Nigeria, it is a very shameful thing, Nigeria is now a mockery in the eyes of many nations, with analysis, if all the state in Nigeria decide to go into farming I think we will be the major exporters of agricultural materials, our president had been talking about palliative, it is only in this political and underdeveloped world that we here all this bullshit, poverty beats palliative so in real sense Nigerian has been subjected poverty and it is very uncalled for,  how will a country in a serious war give us grains, let's make findings Ukraine can never be compare with Nigeria in terms of natural resources reserve but we are here finding it difficult to feed, God help Nigeria.

Its so disheartening, but what can we do? we accept our foolishness because there is no other option than to play along with the inconsiderate leaders.

Why surprises me most is the fact that when I hear the price or amount that is donated to Nigeria it's an amount that one house of Rep. member can give out without his account being shaked but they will stuck up this funds in and international accounts and then suffer the rest of us.

What a mess we live in but it's our country we love it regardless of the incapable leaders we have.

I can feel the bitterness from the fellow as at the time of writing this post and I don’t know but I think you’re cruelly a concerned fellow.
The government and the country is already a total mess up and it think it will take extra effort to fix the country and get things back to order. I also agree that the major challenge we have in the country is greed and if greed isn’t tackle on time, I think most of us the common Nigeria we keep suffering because the government is really distracted and already lost focus of what the country’s problems are and that’s also very evident in the ban of binance and some other top exchanges in the country and I also saw a very funny post on x app where a user was calling the attention of the president to the fact that despite the ban on binance, the rate didn’t drop and maybe he should now try checking sportybet and other casinos, couldn’t help but laughed my ass really out.

It is so shamefull a wealthy and great country like naija na all this thing dey happen , if naija na country wey get good leader na dem wey suppose to dey in the position to support Ukraine for the war crisis that is happening now, to send grain , to support with funds. Nigeria is very wealthy, so wealthy than most Europeans country. I'm not even sure that the whole of Ukraine is even bigger than kano in northern Nigeria.  I know no why shame no dey catch our politicians.

 This no be mata wey dey new to anybody and if you begin to list out the deficiencies of our leaders, we no go comot here and we know fully e no go change anything because severally, talks about how the naira dey constantly dey devalued don dey raised up and better solutions don dey offered yet nothing seems to be done, why? Because nah still the same set of corrupt politicians dey seat.
 Nigeria na country blessed with natural resources but when we no get good government wey fit utilize am, nah still square one we go dey.
If we want to see change, I mean positive change wey fit carry us comot from this state we dey to a better one economically, socially and all round, we need selfless leaders. See wetin Deng Xiaoping do for China, how e turn the country from a third world country to the way e dey now because him believe say the citizens get wetin dey needed to grow and he bin no dey selfish, thinking about lining him pocket alone.

I didn't have the luxury of sitting for long to think out a great topic for this post, because it wouldn't matter in the end after comments and replies have started coming in.

We are aware how it is already and how much suffering we are experiencing on a daily basis since the removal of subsidy, since the hike in prices of food items and other charges.

Recently, reports came in from World Food Programme reporting that the war thorn Ukraine donated  about 25,000 tonnes of grains to Nigeria all in a bid to aid the situation that we as a country can't fix by assisting in providing food to around 1.3 million Nigerians affected by the  rising food prices in not just the North-Eastern part, but the whole country.

We are blessed with the best climate conditions and soil structures. Our lands are fertile and people are willing to work, but when it comes to funding the production of food and raw materials, politicians will carry about portfolios and lobby for the contracts to set themselves and family rich for life.
 It's so disheartening to be receiving grains from a country still fighting a war and in need of aid, don't you think?
 
What a country we have, and the government thinks shutting down the operations of Binance or putting a bullseye on cryptocurrencies, is the solution to the devalued Naira.

What are your thoughts?
