Vice President Kashim Shettima has demanded greater accountability in the Federal Government’s food security interventions, saying public resources must translate into tangible outcomes for farmers, markets and Nigerian households.

The Presidential Food Systems Coordinating Unit disclosed this in a statement issued on Saturday following the seventh meeting of its Steering Committee, chaired by Shettima at the State House, Abuja, on Friday.

The meeting brought together governors, federal ministers, private sector representatives and development partners to review Nigeria’s food systems outlook and coordinate action on domestic production and food availability.

According to the PFSCU, Shettima “called for stronger visibility and accountability across ongoing interventions,” with greater emphasis on ensuring that available resources deliver tangible outcomes.
