“He gave it for his opinion that whoever could make two ears of corn or two  blades of grass to grow upon a spot where only one grew before, would deserve better of mankind and do more essential service to his country than the whole race of politicians put together.” – Jonathan Swift, 1667-1745, in the book ‘Ibrahim B Babangida (1985-1992): Letting a Thousand Flowers Bloom’, P 85
Women in the developing countries – including Nigeria, produce about 70 per cent of food consumed in that country. That should not surprise anyone who has been close to rural communities. The bulk of the food produced in Nigeria is grown on subsistence farms; on which the farmer and family produce a little more than they need themselves and sell the rest to raise cash for other needs.
