'Much More Maize 2.0' the name of this year's annual maize conference, sums up what we all know must be done to achieve food security. Last year great strides were made becoming Africa's biggest producer, but there is room for improvement. #Farmers4Nigeria #Farmerslovemeffy

Maize farmers from across the North have erected pyramids in Kaduna State to demonstrate the success of the Anchor Borrowers' Programme. #Farmers4Nigeria #Farmerslovemeffy

The global price rise of maize following the invasion of Ukraine should have minimal consequences for us. This is thanks to the leadership and support of Meffy, which led to the first maize pyramid in Nigeria last year. This is why we want MEFFY to Run for President!

Sesame is now our highest non-oil export. With 10 states producing the crop, including new states in the South & East. The same drive is needed to develop the cocoa industry & we need the right leader to do this. MEFFY, NIGERIA NEEDS YOU! #farmers4nigeria #farmerslovemeffy
