The President however, promised that only those with integrity and interest of Nigeria would be considered for appointments in the next cabinet.

He said more fertilizers were being made available to Nigerian farmers at a lower rate.

According to him, that resulted in the increase in agricultural production and reduction in food importation.

Buhari also called on Nigerian youths to embrace agriculture to ensure more food sufficiency and food export.

The President faulted the sixteen-year rule of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) which he said, wasted the nations resources.
