Vast swathes of arable land coexist with dependence on food imports, highlighting a gap between potential and reality. Insecurity, corruption, and government neglect – are significant roadblocks.  Imagine farmers living in fear, unable to cultivate their land due to safety concerns.  Fear is a powerful disincentive to investment and productivity.

The limitations of current solutions like loans and fertilizers are a valid point.  These are tools, but without addressing the core issues, their effectiveness is limited.  Imagine a farmer receiving a loan but being unable to use it due to fear of violence. The focus on the oil industry over long-term sustainable solutions like agriculture is shortsighted.  Imagine a nation prioritizing a finite resource over a sector with the potential to ensure food security and economic prosperity for generations to come.
