ADC Accuses Nigerian Government of Manipulating Food Prices for Political Gain

The African Democrat Congress (ADC) has accused the Nigerian government, led by Mallam Bolaji Abdullahi, of weaponizing hunger by artificially lowering food prices through import waivers, undermining local farmers. The ADC alleges that the government is hoarding imported food while millions face hunger due to banditry and high fertilizer costs.

This manipulation is seen as a ploy for short-term political gain, deceiving citizens about economic progress while they continue to suffer. The ADC calls for transparency and an end to the manipulation of food prices for political purposes.
