Food Blockage: Action of Northern Food Dealers Strange: Applaud Efi Igbo Cows — Ohanaeze

Efi Igbo Cows Anambra

Reacting in a similar manner, Ohanaeze Ndigbo described as “strange” the decision of northern food  dealers to stop supplies to the South.

Publicity Secretary of Ohanaeze Ndigbo, Chief Alex Ogbonnia, said: “This is strange. Instead of addressing the complaints from across the country about herders’ destruction of farm lands, they are now threatening to block food supply. It is, indeed, strange and a call for us to look inwards, and be more creative.

“In any case, these goods are perishables. They will suffer more, not the south. There is no food item in the North that cannot grow here in the south.

“We will just look inwards; all food items can be grown here. There is nothing wrong with Efi Igbo (Igbo cows) and other cattle can be reared here.”
