Akinwunmi Adesina, President of the African Development Bank (AfDB) has slammed the decision of the federal government to import food, describing it as depressing.
Adesina’s criticism was made known while speaking on the topic of “Food Security and Financial Sustainability in Africa,” on Saturday at the Council of Anglican Provinces of Africa retreat in Abuja.
He posited that Nigeria cannot continue to depend on food importation to keep prices stable and that doing so would undermine the nation’s agriculture strategy.
