The Federal Government has inaugurated the Presidential Food Systems Coordination Unit – PFSCU to tackle the incessant hardship in the country.

Vice President KASHIM SHETTIMA, who inaugurated the unit at the Presidential Villa in Abuja, said it is part of the President BOLA TINUBU administration’s plan to curb hunger.

The presidency has also collaborated with the states, development partners and other critical stakeholders to address the hike in prices of commodities and widespread food insecurity in the country.

The vice president highlighted the mandate of the PFSCU, noting that the unit was not created to usurp the functions of the Ministry of Agriculture, but that the urgency and seriousness of the matter at hand require the ideas and resources of all stakeholders.
