Local rice is far more better but for those ones directly from the farm without more processing, you have to pick through the rice the same way you do to beans inother to remove stones. So people would rather go for the easy choice, but their is some well processed local rice.

Nigerians now prefer foreign rice to local rice because our local rice had been abandoned for so long with bad packaging. I think our local rice producers should do more in packaging and marketing, and every foreign rice shoud be strictly bound from entering the country. If Nigerians no longer have foreign rice to consume, with time, we will all fall back to our local rice, and that will be a very big boost to our ECONOMY in a couple of weeks. But can GEJ stop foreign rice from entering the country? When all the foreign rice importers are the same corrupt officials in his govt.

God Save Nigeria.

My Dad loves Ofada rice but it gets soggy easily and I love my rice not glued to each other so I prefer the other type, Ofada is sweeter though.

Ironically, the "local" rice keeps you healthy because of its high fiber content. They release sugar slowly in to the blood stream and thereby keeping diabetes away. While the foreign rice has turned Nigerians more diabetic than ever; dumping sugar into their blood streams.

You are yet to eat Ebony gold(Abakaliki rice) or maybe you have eaten without knowing. Tastes better than the popular foreign rice

Local rice is more nutritious than the polished foreign rice. The polished ones lack one of the vitamin Bs

Our local Rice is not hyginically prepared that's why people are running away from it.
