Without addressing our food crisis, we cannot make progress or achieve meaningful success. Food is life.
If we fail to resolve this issue—especially by continuing to rely on foreigners for our food supply—we risk jeopardizing our very health and life. And this poses a serious threat to our existence. We cannot afford to let that happen.
The government has a significant role to play in solving our food problem. Although we have governments in Africa, we have not seen much impact from our leaders. Many of them have failed to prioritize the most critical aspects of governance. Instead, they embezzle public funds and engage in blame games.
The current food crisis is something our governments should have prevented. They should not have allowed things to deteriorate to this level. However, due to their lackadaisical attitude and the fact that they are not directly affected, they remain indifferent to our problems.
But the people must hold these politicians accountable! We must speak out and not keep quiet.
To address our food problem, the government must implement both short-term and long-term solutions.
Short-Term Solutions
First and foremost, the government should declare a state of emergency in the agricultural sector. Food inflation has skyrocketed to the point that ordinary people can no longer afford three square meals a day. That is absolutely unacceptable!
The prices of other essential goods have also surged, leaving people struggling to survive. Many work from morning until night yet still cannot afford a decent meal. We need an urgent response to this food crisis.
The government can mobilize various agencies and institutions to provide immediate relief to those without food. Additionally, it can regulate food prices in the market to ensure affordability for the average citizen.
In Africa, we have a lot of rich individuals who waste food. Why can’t there be a system where excess food is redirected to those in need? The government can establish food banks where people can donate food, and those who need it can receive assistance.
Long-Term Solutions
For a sustainable solution, the government should consistently provide access to seeds and farmland for those interested in farming. Furthermore, policies can be put in place requiring every household to cultivate a portion of land to grow their own food.
As part of a long-term strategy, the government must also invest in research, food technology, and agricultural science.
There are numerous untapped opportunities within Africa’s food industry. Many plants and animal products native to Africa have immense medicinal and economic value worldwide. Why not explore and harness these resources for the benefit of the continent?
The truth is, Africa is blessed with abundant resources, and we cannot continue on this path of neglect.
Our governments need to wake up. The people must challenge their leaders and demand accountability. We cannot stand by and allow them to do as they please. Power belongs to the people—not the military, not the politicians, but the people. The moment we realize this and take action, change will follow.
We cannot sit back and wait for change. We must make the change!
I see a better Africa. I see an Africa with stronger leadership and better governance. Together, we can solve our food problem. Together, we can create meaningful change.
Cheers!
