The presidency has countered the claim that the federal government is investing heavily in importing food items as a way of forcing down the price of foodstuffs in Nigeria.
The presidency clarified that the crashing prices in the markets are because the government has been able to deal effectively with insecurity, and farmers are now able to go to their farms.
The Special Adviser to President Bola Tinubu on Policy Communication, Daniel Bwala, gave the explanation in a post via his 𝕏 account on Monday.
