May 11 National Eat What You Want Day was created by Thomas and Ruth Roy to help people break away from the frustrating health and diet trends of our times, if for only one day, and just let go and enjoy life a little.
Interacting with our correspondent through WhatsApp chat, Chief Harrison who observed that stomach infrastructure which is the unofficial system of government, especially at the state level in Nigeria where the governors embark on programmes and projects that directly provide food for the vulnerable, indigent and the downtrodden, said the present economic challenges in the world, demands that citizens need urgently stomach infrastructure to survive.
He pointed out that good comfort food which makes one to feel full, happy and sleepy all at the same time, has eluded most homes as most households go on compulsory hunger strike with no glimmer of hope.
Harrison who maintained that the provision of stomach infrastructure would remain the surest way to tackle insecurity, passionately called on the well-to-do individuals, private bodies and various governments at all levels to take deliberate steps to address the issue of poverty and youth unemployment.
He recalled that during the last Easter celebration, his Foundation, Harrison Goodness Foundation, HGF fed over 600 children through a programme tagged “Feed the future” as its complementary role towards assisting the government fight hunger and starvation.
Harrison who observed that the day is not widely known and celebrated in Nigeria, however enjoined the wealthy people to make National Eat What You Want Day fun is by gathering the less privileged, downtrodden, indigent and vulnerable people and enjoy lunch or dinner together with them.
