Climate Change and Hunger Belt: Why international day of poverty must start on Nigerian farm by Remmy Nweke - WeekendSalvo@NaijaAgroNet

WeekendSalvo@NaijaAgroNet ... Linking agrobiz, sustainable environs, people & technology

Climate change turns Nigerian farms into a hunger belt, violating human rights. REMMY NWEKE in this WeekendSalvo@NaijaAgroNet, argues the International Day of Poverty must begin by funding rural resilience and structural reform for smallholder farmers.
Introduction:
The smallholder farmer is the rural backbone of Nigeria, the primary producer of the food that feeds the nation. Yet, this critical population remains tragically vulnerable to external shocks, existing at the razor's edge of food security and poverty.

This inherent vulnerability brings into sharp relief the significance of the International Day for the Eradication of Poverty on October 17th.

Sunday Jackson: Justice, agriculture, and cost of survival in rural Nigeria by Remmy Nweke - WeekendSalvo@NaijaAgroNet

NaijaAgroNet: ... Linking agrobiz, sustainable environs, people & technology

Foreword:
When history recalls the struggles of Nigerian farmers, the name Sunday Jackson may stand as a haunting reminder of how deeply justice, agriculture, and survival intersect in rural Nigeria. Jackson’s story, a farmer condemned to death for defending himself, is not just about law and punishment. It is about a system that has failed to protect the very hands that feed the nation.
Sunday Jackson: Justice, agriculture, and cost of survival in rural Nigeria by Remmy Nweke - WeekendSalvo@NaijaAgroNet
In 2015, on a quiet piece of farmland in Adamawa State, Jackson was attacked by an armed herdsman. Acting in self-defence, he managed to disarm his assailant. He survived, but that act of survival became his undoing. Arrested and prosecuted, he was sentenced to death by hanging; a sentence upheld by the Supreme Court in March 2025. The judgment that he “should have fled instead of fighting back” struck many Nigerians as both morally and legally unsettling.

When President Bola Ahmed Tinubu granted clemency to more than 150 inmates across Nigeria in October 2025, it was hailed as an act of compassion and reform. Yet one omission, the case of Sunday Jackson, a farmer sentenced to death for defending himself, casts a moral shadow over an otherwise noble gesture.
Why Sunday Jackson Matters in Presidential Pardon - Editorial@NaijaAgroNet
Jackson’s ordeal began in 2015 on his farm in Adamawa State, when he was attacked by an armed herdsman. In a desperate act of survival, he disarmed his assailant and lived to tell the story. For that act of self-defence, he was arrested, tried, and sentenced to death by hanging, a sentence upheld by the Supreme Court 10 years later.
