The white man has never apologised for their genocide against Africa.

So why would any right think African start believing the same white man wants to help feed Africans.

Just remember what happened to the native Americans when they believed that white man was helping them by giving them blankets that later turned out to have been laced with smallpox.

Why the f..k have we not broken all ties with these white devils?

Eat Dangote rice at your peril, I would be sourcing my rice carefully. [/size]

I am also circumspect in considering this initiative from Bill Gates a humanitarian one; even though many Nigerians may feel otherwise. I doubt if this will bring the much needed succour to the Nigerian populace in the long run.

I am very much aware of the health risks of consuming GMOs. Only God knows how much of these crops Nigerians have consumed at the moment.

How do you plan to make a careful sourcing of your rice?

I share your sentiments. GM is a No No! but how much of it are we sure we are consuming already. At one point a certain body of agricultural scientist were very vocal against it back in 2008. Our lawmakers are junkheads, sitting pretty on billions while bone watching as the economy is in dire needs. Mama piss could throw money around in billions without initiative of a farm field in bayelsa that wouldgo a long way for her people.What a shame!. BG, kindly gesture but unaccaptable. we are capable of feeding ourselves.
kiss the truth!


I also say a big NO To this Bill Gates intrusion! GM rice? Oh no! We already have oversized fruits in the markets and now rice? We may suffer the implications in a decade or more. Devilish! It's all a plot to realize their new world order. Control the population of the world so that resources can go round. Create deaths thru anyway possible and make money from it

BS! Which of the food you eat today hasn't been modified genetically? Nothing you eat today grows in the wild, human modified them. The wheat you eat today were once just grasses, potatoes were formally poisonous, wild apples are tiny and not sweet, carrots were white and not this sweet, there are many varieties of tomotoes that can be transport easily without much damage. Did you think God created them just that way? No, people modified them over many years to what you eat now.

Agriculture should not be left in the hands of small scale farmers alone. Nigeria should go into large scale mechanized farming. This is the only way to guarantee adequate food supply.

Our problem has never been fund. The Nigeria problem is mismanagement, misappropriation and diversion of funds. And this government apparently fighting corruption has not been able to stop it.

Months back, we were told 69 out of the 70 trailers of rice meant for the IDP camp were diverted. Even the one trailer that got there had a short fall of 150 bags of rice. Please, may be I am not updated. Can anyone tell us if they have received any feedback on the diverted trailers of rice?

Enough of the loans and foreign aids We have enough money in this country. Until corrupt people are dealt with and exposed to the public and the world to see, we are not ready for change.

How can the government be trying corruption, after one year plus, no one has been successfully prosecuted. All you hear of is trials and detention. They will tell us they don't want to publish the name.

Why fight corruption and hide their identity?. That means, there are dignified thieves.

Today, they will tell us 3.4 trillion naira has been recovered. Another day, they will say it's 78 billion. A dishonest government is corrupt.

We can't produce enough rice, we stop the legal importation. I said legal because importation of rice has not stopped. It is only making customs officers richer and making it more difficult for consumers.

The price of rice which is currently about N22,000 naira is not more than N12,000 at the Nigeria borders.

The government should rethink and change policies.

We hear of customs impounding rice but you will never hear of them impounding arms.

As far as I am concerned, we don't have sincere and sensible leaders yet.

I pray that in the very near future, some of us will have the opportunity to take the responsibility of leading this nation.
