The Emir of Kano, Muhammadu Sanusi
II, has said he gets into trouble whenever he delivers a speech in Kaduna
state.
Speaking on Tuesday at the
commissioning of Olam International’s feed mill poultry, Sanusi said: “It is
always a pleasure to associate with the giant stride driven by my friend, the
governor of Kaduna state.
“The problem, of course, is that
every time I give a speech in Kaduna, I get myself into trouble.”
Speaking further at the event,
Sanusi stated that the agricultural sector is crucial to securing employment
for Nigeria’s teeming young population.
“Nigeria has a population of
170million. In the next 20 years, we are going to have 85 million Nigerians
within the ages of 20 and 40. That is more than the population of Germany, the
world’s third largest economy.
“The only way we are going to
provide for this mass of young men is to invest in Agriculture and industry.
So, this is not just about food security, it is about the security of our
nation,” he added.
