Nigeria's Agriculture Ministry asked workers to pray and fast for better food supplies across the country. The ministry sent a memo telling staff to attend prayer meetings and fast for three Monday sessions. Many citizens criticized the government approach as insufficient for solving hunger problems. Officials said the prayer sessions help boost worker morale rather than serve as actual policy. The ministry compared religious activities to fitness programs for employee wellness.
Critics remain skeptical about government efforts to fight widespread hunger affecting millions of people. Nigeria faces serious inflation that makes food more expensive for ordinary families. About 4.4 million Nigerians currently lack enough food to eat each day. The country struggles with multiple economic challenges that worsen food access. Religious solutions alone cannot address the complex causes of food shortages and rising prices.
