As hunger grips hard on Nigerians, the All Farmers Association of Nigeria, AFAN, weekend, declares that it is shame on Nigerian government and Nigerians to accept food supply from war-torn Ukraine.

Speaking with Vanguard on the heels of Ukraine to send 125,000 metric tonnes of grains to Nigeria, Sudan, Kenya and Yemen as humanitarian aid in compliance with the decree by President Volodymyr Zelensky, the National President, AFAN, Arc Kabir Ibrahim, queried that how can Africa’s largest economy accept food aid from a country amidst heavy fighting running into months with its citizens fleeing in their millions to different countries in Europe for safety and as refugees.

It will be recalled on Thursday, Ukraine agreed to send 125, 000 tonnes of grains to Nigeria, Sudan, Kenya and Yemen as humanitarian aid in compliance with the decree by President Volodymyr Zelensky, and according to the country’s agro-allied service organisation, Ukraine Agro Consult, Ukraine’s Interior Ministry and the State Emergency Situations Service signed the decree “on the provision of humanitarian aid to the countries of Africa and Asia.”
