As always, every speech, government policy, and programme by Soludo commands widespread attention, leading to praise and in-depth analysis by commentators on national television and in daily newspapers. Once again, the introduction of “Farm to Feed” by Soludo has ignited a national discussion at a time when the nation is dealing with ongoing nationwide protests and the long-standing issue of hunger.

It’s no surprise that analysts and critics discussing the impact of the current protests and President Tinubu’s recent speech are encouraging other governors and leaders to follow Soludo’s approach to ending hunger. Additionally, commentators are advocating for a return to subsistence farming at the family level to ensure that families can adequately feed themselves, generate surpluses, and ultimately eradicate hunger.

Soludo’s Farm to Feed model is a thoughtful and forward-thinking campaign that embodies a commitment to achieving self-sufficiency in food production. By prioritizing food security, this aims to set an example for the Nigerian youths, encouraging them to seek solutions rather than protests. It stands as a beacon of hope that other states should look to emulate to put an end to longstanding grievances about food shortages.
