              "The National Social Investment Programme is more than a Poverty Alleviation Programme. It is the largest single provision in our budget, and one of the five (5) Pillars of our National Economic Recovery and Growth Plan (NERGP). Our greatest resource is not Oil, but the talent and can-do spirit of Nigerians. Acting Pr esident speaks of "A future where we truly grow what we eat, and where we are able to add value to our products before export." He recalls the launch of the Anchor Borrowers Programme by President Muhammadu Buhari in November 2015, in Kebbi. Today more than 400,000 farmers in Kebbi have benefited. No doubt, Boko Haram has been degraded as a military force. The major task for us now is to ensure we are able to stop suicide bombings and kidnappings. We are no longer importing grain to feed displaced people in the Northeast. We are now buying and using our own grain. We are no longer importing grain to feed displaced ...
