Renowned Nollywood actor Prince Eke has raised alarming concerns about the escalating security crisis in Nigeria, with particular focus on Benue State’s worsening situation.
The award-winning thespian suggests a disturbing correlation between the violent disruptions in Nigeria’s farming communities and potential ulterior motives to introduce genetically engineered crops nationwide.
In his thought-provoking statement, he articulated: ”For years, systematic attacks have plagued Nigeria’s agricultural heartlands – especially Benue. Farmers bear the brunt of this orchestrated violence. This pattern suggests deliberate manipulation, potentially connected to multinational agribusiness interests promoting GMO adoption across Africa.
Dubbed Nigeria’s “food basket,” Benue’s traditional farming communities preserve indigenous seed varieties. Yet relentless raids, armed conflicts, territorial invasions, and abductions increasingly displace local growers. As crop yields diminish, international agrochemical giants position modified alternatives as the only answer.
With ancestral farming methods facing extinction, regional food sovereignty collapses, creating dependency on foreign-owned, patent-protected seed technologies.
Strategic destabilization appears to pave the way for GMO infiltration.
Am I connecting dots that don’t exist?”
