Abstract
The history of the African child is littered with misery and poverty perpetuated by the absence of meaningful leadership. The continent has the largest arable land on the globe, and yet the children of such rich a continent with a per capita land occupation of 2.7 hectares sleep hungry. Not only are they under nourished, but there is no food security for these natives. Not only is it that bad, but there should be stated the unpleasing condition of affairs when the African child is fed by chicken from United States and China. The continent at large depends on one country or another from outside feeding the continent, at a time when this continent has an outcry for land to the blacks. This paper addresses the food security issue and considers the importance of agriculture as a compulsory subject for all learners. Every province is premised to have at least one agricultural college to facilitate the development of agriculture and the food security. The Number of landowners by land type, parcels, suggests that rural poverty is a deliberate choice made through bad leadership in the government. The absence of these visionary leaderships has impacted negatively on the economic welfare of the chronically poor. The model therefore suggests that agriculture becomes the fundamental kingmaker for the development of the economy.
